Prayer
Lord,
Let me have
too deep a sense
of humour to be proud.
Let me know my absurdity
before I act absurdly.
Let me realize that when
I am humble I am most
human, most truthful,
and most worthy of your
serious consideration.
Amen
Daniel A. Lord, SJ

22nd Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C
“In your goodness, O God, you provide for the poor"
Reflections by Father Paul Beukes OMI
In the Holy Eucharist, we see the humility Jesus taught. He who is worthy of the highest place comes to us in the humblest form, bread and wine. He offers us a place at this table, not because we earned it, but because we are poor in spirit and in need of his grace.
Let us take our humble place at his table and, in doing so, learn to serve others with the same selfless love.
