## Resource

We explore the biblical concept of humility through a reflection on Jesus Christ’s declaration of being meek and humble of heart. The homily contrasts the quiet, defenseless nature of God—specifically in the Eucharist and the Crucifixion—with the aggressive power typically associated with mythological deities or modern superheroes. True spiritual rest is found by adopting a childlike simplicity and acknowledging our personal limitations rather than relying solely on our own strengths. This humility is defined not as low self-esteem, but as a willingness to learn and an honest commitment to living in the truth of one’s identity. Ultimately, the reflection suggests that accepting human frailty and surrendering pride can help individuals find relief from the heavy burdens of contemporary life.
