OF HUMBLEST BEGINNINGS!
Jesus was the GREATEST PERSON
Whoever lived=he conquered death=
Yet he was also
A man of
THE HUMBLEST BEGINNINGS!
For God always SURPRISES US
In the way he works
USING the lowest and
THE MOST HUMBLE=
To advance his kingdom
We should all be
SO HUMBLE=
OF HUMBLE BEGINNINGS!
“The Spirit of the Lord
Is upon me
Because he has anointed me
To bring glad tidings
To the poor”
Luke 4:18
Today we read about Jesus
And BEING REJECTED
In his hometown
THEY all thought they
Knew him=they could NOT UNDERSTAND
Who Jesus was=and what his MISSION was
In this world=and life
We too should be
OF HUMBLEST BEGINNINGS!
“When he makes inquisition
For blood=he remembers them
He does not forget
The CRY OF THE HUMBLE”
Psalm 9:12
“For thus says
The high and lofty ONE
That inhabits eternity-
Whose name is Holy
I dwell in the high
And holy place
With him=also that is
Of a contrite=and HUMBLE SPIRIT
To revive the spirit
Of the HUMBLE
And to revive the heart
Of the contrite ones”
Isaiah
57:15
It is NO COINCIDENCE
That many of the WORLD’S SAINTS
Were of=HUMBLEST BEGINNINGS!
Today we celebrate
Saint Andre Bessette-1845-1937-from Montreal
He was nearly DENIED ENTRANCE
Into his order=
CONGREGATION of the Holy Cross
He had poor health
And was always given
The most MENIAL of jobs
Doorkeeper-laundry worker-and messenger
Yet he carried out his jobs FAITHFULLY=
And to everyone’s surprise=he was part
Of some MIRACULOUS HEALINGS!
And went on=TO BE A SAINT!
So LIVE WITH HUMILITY
Like Jesus=and the SAINTS
Of this world=and be
OF HUMBLEST BEGINNINGS!
In Jesus’ name=and in the name of our MOST POWERFUL and
humble Holy Father!
