How great is the kindness of God. How great is the dignity
of the penitent. He who lives in eternity dwells in the heart
of the humble and in the soul of the penitent.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The spirit of humility is sweeter than honey
and those who nourish themselves
with this honey produce sweet fruit.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Attribute to God every good that you have received.
If you take credit for something that does not
belong to you, you will be guilty of theft.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
