In this profound reflection shared with the Lay Community of the Philippines, Sister Regina Victoria Yulo r.a. invites us to rediscover humility as the beating heart of spiritual life within the spirituality of the Assumption. Inspired by the thought of Saint Marie Eugénie, the talk reminds us that "without humility, there is no spiritual life," for this virtue springs from love and frees us from the false self-love that prevents us from truly loving.
Through relatable examples and questions that touch on daily life, the author guides us along a path where humility is not denial or sorrow, but rather trust, joy, and gratitude: “Humility is not a sad virtue... it is a joyful act of love.” In this text, we discover that being humble is not about shrinking ourselves, but about growing in truth and freedom, and allowing God to work within us.
You can read the full text here and let yourself be challenged by a virtue that transforms from within.
