“Our blessed Father’s advice to ‘ask for nothing and refuse nothing’ is far superior to this desire of yours or any other practice of humility. I admit that God wants you to be humble, but in the ways he chooses for you, not in those you would choose. So make good use of your own failures and shortcomings. You may be certain that these are the only means by which you will acquire the true and solid humility that he wants you to have.”
