Who am I

We literally receive our Lord and Savior every Sunday. In response to this profound truth, we ask: “Who am I? Lord, who am I to receive you?”It’s a valid response, because frankly, we are not worthy to receive HIm. We’re fallen and sinful creatures. But, it’s only by humbly acknowledging our littleness and our wretchedness that we see the path leading upwards. Magnanimity, greatness of soul, is only possible through humility. By knowing our proper place, we recognize that we are not worthy and we are in dire need of help. We cannot lift ourselves up by our bootstraps. We cannot attain greatness by our own power. At every Mass, the One who came to raise us up, the One who came so that we may have life, the One who came to show us the way, waits for us. And, we need Him. Our greatness comes through only Him.Let us pray. Heavenly Father, we can do nothing without You, without your Son, without Your grace, without Your gifts, without Your sacraments, without the Eucharist. Help us to know our place so that we may always turn to You, to be with You. In Jesus' name, Amen. Get full access to The Victor's Crown at www.thevictorscrown.com/subscribe
