Humbly regard others as more important than yourselves

“Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves, each looking out not for his own interests, but also everyone for those of others.” (PHIL 2: 3-4)

When we apply this to our marriages, when we apply this to our societies, when we apply this to our parishes or communities—what will happen? When we “do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory,” when we offer a free, creative and joyful gift of self, we can change our world to be a secure place for our children, a friendly place for families and a place of glory to God.

“If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples, and you will know the truth, says the Lord.” (Gospel Acclamation)
