Give me, O Lord, the treasure of humility
Spirituality
St. Alphonsus (c. 1755): “God, says St. James, resists the proud, and gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). The Lord has promised to hear the prayers of all… [But] The proud he hears not; according to the Apostle, he resists their petitions. But to the humble he is liberal beyond measure… ‘Give me, O Lord’, exclaims St. Augustine, ‘the treasure of humility’… St. Teresa relates of herself, that the greatest graces that she received from God were infused into her soul when she humbled herself most before the Lord in prayer.”
Doctrine
Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (# 5), June 29, 1896: “The Church of Christ, therefore, is one and the same for ever; those who leave it depart from the will and command of Christ, the Lord – leaving the path of salvation they enter on that path of perdition… He who observes not this unity observes not the law of God, holds not the faith of the Father and the Son, clings not to life and salvation.”
