This is from my daily prayer book:
I have been treated with contempt, dear Lord, and I ask for courage to benefit from what has happened to me. Teach me to know that great graces cannot be obtained without humility. Those who are to have them must be humiliated to be made worthy by humility to receive the blessings that you withhold from the proud. Having experienced the present humiliation, may I treasure and look upon it as a sure sign that you have some special grace in store for me.
Amen
I hope this makes someone smile today:)

It made me smile and I yelled out "can I get a witness???" to which my kids yelled "AMEN"!! I forgot to tell you Smilemaker-when I was visiting my parents and bro every night at dinner after grace someone would yell the phrase and we would all scream AMEN,it made it seem as if you were with us:)
