Is It Wrong to Be Proud?

It’s a facetious question.

I glanced up at the priests and altar boys at a Solemn High Mass for The Seven Sorrows and felt a deep sense of…

Pride.

Unmitigated. Unqualified. Pride.

The priests – my priests – looked amazing in their gold vestments with their precise movements and perfect Latin. The young boys were flawless in their reverential attention to detail.

I know I had nothing to do with it.

But boy did my heart swell.

Humility, Lord… Grant me humility. And thank You for Your gifts to me.
