“As long as you are proud you cannot know God. A proud man is always looking down on thing and people: and, of course, as long as you are looking down you cannot see something that is above you.” - C. S. Lewis, Mere ChristianityIn this Sunday's Gospel, Jesus narrates the Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector. The one was self-righteous, and the other was self-examining. The one looked down on others, and the other looked to God. The one felt vindicated, the other was vindicated.
