Chapter 7: The value of humility (paragraphs 1-3)

[Jesus] taught us by these words that whenever one of us is raised to a position of prominence there is always an element of pride involved. (From para. 1 of Ch 7 of Saint Benedict's Rule, trans. by Patrick Barry, OSB, 1997.)

I can learn to recognize and let go of these experiences of pride, by turning my attention to what really matters: the awesome power of the Spirit working through right relationship.
