Humility And Sanctity

10th Sunday After Pentecost 2021
This is Humility Sunday.  Our Lord in the Gospel states clearly that he who humbles himself will be exalted.  It is the fundamental virtue for holiness.  The Epistle lists the charismatic graces that were so prevalent in the days of persecution because the early Christians needed these helps in facing martyrdom.  As the Church came out of the catacombs it was already fully developed as could be seen at the Council of Nicea.  From the beginning the Resurrection was preached and sanctity was evident in the lives of the faithful.  We can do the same but we must pray.  Saints Oswald and Dominic are wonderful examples for us and their feasts are this week.
