People are hungry for the Word of God that will give peace, that will give unity, that will give joy. But you cannot give what you do not have. That's why it is necessary to deepen your life of prayer. Be sincere in your prayers.
Sincerity is humility, and you acquire humility only by accepting humiliations. All that has been said about humility is not enough to teach you humility. All that you have read about humility is not enough to teach you humility. You learn humility only by accepting humiliations. And you will meet humiliation all through your life. The greatest humiliation is to know that you are nothing. This you come to know when you face God in prayer.
Often a deep and fervent look at Christ is the best prayer: I look at Him and He looks at me. When you come face to face with God, you cannot but know that you are nothing, that you have nothing.
Mother Teresa
