Theme: He who humbles himself shall be exalted
1st Reading: Sirach, Chapter 3: 17-18, 20, 28-29
Scripture explains that a humble
person is appreciated by God, our Creator, and is highly regarded by his fellow
men.
2nd Reading: Hebrews, Chapter 12: 18-19, 22-24a
In contrast to the old perceptions
about the manifestations of God’s greatness, it is soothing for followers of
Christ to know that the God we worship is as approachable as he is affable.
Gospel Reading: Luke, Chapter 14:1, 7-14
This scripture is as much a lesson
in good social behaviour, with regard to self-esteem, as it is a caution about
the need to be humble in order to attain a place of honour at the Lord’s
banquet.
