Growing In Dependence
from The Word at Christ the Savior Hosted by Christ the Savior American Coptic Orthodox Church
The reason Jesus requires us to be converted to become like little children is to imitate their humility, and a hallmark of a child’s humility is his dependence on his parents. A child is always in need for his parents, and we must likewise imitate that quality of humility. We are called to recognize our poverty, embrace our dependence on God and become like beggars. As St. Isaac the Syrian says, “One attains humility by putting on the garment of a beggar.” Tune in to hear more about how we can grow in our dependence on God and imitate the humility of children.
