'The man ensnared by pride will need God's help, since man is of no use to him.'
St. John Climacus
I wonder if a man such as that would be willing to accept the Lord's help :(

Saint Abundius
Bishop of Como.
He was born in Thessalonica, modern Greece; was ordained and named bishop of Como, Italy. A noted theologian, Abundius attended the Council of Constantinople in 450. As a result of his obvious intellect and holiness, he was sent by Pope Leo the Great to Emperor Theodosius II, as envoy of the Holy See. His mission led to the Council of Chalcedon in 451 and to the Council of Milan in 452.
Abundius served as the pope’s representative in various councils, clearly stating the Church’s role and concerns. He died in 469.
Saint Abundius
Pray for us!

Good question! Pride is a disability that prevents someone from seeing honestly how things are! :crucifix:
