God Humbled Himself - July 11, 2023

"Who am I that you are mindful of me?" These are the words of Scripture reflecting on the human experience in relationship to God and his great love for, and His mindfulness of, each one of us. His Love is what holds us together. He is Creator of all the universe and yet he chooses to come and dwell among us in the Incarnation. By the power of the Holy Spirit, he becomes present in the Eucharist. Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity: He further humbles Himself that he may dwell in us in the form of bread and wine.

What can we learn about God's humility in reflecting on the "kenosis" (self-emptying) of God found in Philippians 2? What can we learn from the examples of humility we find in the life of Christ? And how about the examples of humility in His Passion, Death, and Resurrection? What is "true humility?" Finally, what does all of this have to do with the Eucharist?
