Jesus teaches a parable today that will aid us in our journey to become a saint. The Master Teacher teaches us again, the importance of humility to enter the Kingdom of heaven. It is our most valuable tool vs. the Devil in our journey to heaven. He also teaches how to approach the Father in prayer. “O God, have mercy on me a sinner!” Our eyes turned to the floor and on our knees, beating our chest. If we choose to show off how holy we are and thank God we are not like the rest of humanity (sinners), we are following the Devil and his ways (selfishness, pride, and envy). If we choose Jesus and His teachings, Jesus tells us, “for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” Lk 18:9-14

On judgment day, we will have lived one way or the other. During Spring Break, we will have many choices to make with our time. I hope you choose to be humble and spend time with God and take time to serve Him and others, not spending it all on yourself and electronics.

Become a saint!
