"And what doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?" -- 6:8."Put on therefore... kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long-suffering." -- 3:12.Plant in us an humble mind, Patient, pitiful, and kind; Meek and lowly let us be, Full of goodness, full of Thee.C. WESLEY.There is no true and constant gentleness without humility; while we are so fond of ourselves, we are easily offended with others. Let us be persuaded that nothing is due to us, and then nothing will disturb us. Let us often think of our own infirmities, and we shall become indulgent towards those of others.FRANCOIS DE LA MOTHE FENELON.Endeavor to be patient in bearing with the defects and infirmities of others, of what sort soever they be; for that thyself also hast many failings which must be borne with by others. If thou canst not make thyself such an one as thou wouldest, how canst thou expect to have another in all things to thy liking?THOMAS A KEMPIS.
