    Homily from the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross

    Homily from the Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time

    Humility is nothing other than acknowledging and living the truth.

    Humility is not pretending to be someone other than we are. It is neither pretending to be better nor pretending to be worse than we are. But is the freedom and the joy of living the full truth about ourselves.
