Continuing the thread of yesterday's post, here is a quote from The Rule of St. Benedict:
The first step of humility, then, is that a man keeps the fear of God always before his eyes and never forgets it. 
The second step of humility is that a man loves not his own will nor takes pleasure in the satisfaction of his desires.
Also:
If we humble our hearts, the Lord will raise it [them?] to heaven.
And I'm pretty sure this quote is about humble people:
They judge it is the Lord's power, not their own, that brings about the good in them.
I'm praying for you!
