Ignatius of Loyola on the 3 Types of Humility

[@petenachtigall1224]

Spot on my friend. There are more and more of us awakening to the true Gospel. Thanks for sharing.

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

You are very welcome. Have a great day!

[@jillchristine1561]

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Got me thinking 😊

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

Any time!

I love this perspective.

Ignatius of Loyola was onto something, wasn't he?

This is a virtue we must constantly self examine in ourselves. Sadly, pride has so many clever hiding places in my soul that unless I daily practice self denial I may only ever have the appearance of virtue. Good provoking thoughts! Thank you

We can probably deceive ourselves that we are growing in humility. "Oh Humility, that bashful dame, she disappears the instant I whisper her name!"

Thanks John. Have a blessed day.

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

You too!

[@margaretinsydney3856]

Yes, thank you! I love these little thoughts from your car, it looks like.😊

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

You are so welcome! Yes, these are just reflections that happen while driving.

Wow! That’s powerful John - the mystery keeps unfolding! Many years ago I wrote a song/poem ‘though none go with me still will I follow’ 🎵50yrs later still no one wants to know and I feel somewhat misunderstood and invisible in the institution. Bless your journey

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

And bless your journey as well!

[@marthadavis5068]

I just went through this. Small scale though.

[@JohnChaffeeTalks]

It is a grace to grow in such ways.

Been thinking along these same lines as of late. What does it take to totally release to the image of the Christ? What does that look like? Thank you so much for adding clarity. Blessings and peace.

Thank you! Have a lovely day.

This kind of humility only comes with true spiritual maturity, which means an emptying not only of the things of self, but the artifice of all things worldly. For what seems good to a man so often is an abomination before God. Perhaps the greatest example of this (other than the Lord Himself) was the apostle Paul: "We are fools for Christ's sake, but you (the Corinthians) are wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are distinguished, but we are dishonored" (1 Cor. 4:10). Foolishness in human eyes (i.e. the wisdom of this world) is the stamp of the true Slave of Christ. Thank you Brother.
