Without humility the mystery of the cross cannot be understood, much less lived.
For anyone who seeks honor, success, and worldly fame, the cross is cause for scandal, an enemy which threatens his happiness and curtails his liberty.
The proud man who wants to be the undisputed master of his own life and rebels against every form of suffering, physical or moral, which impedes him from his own talents and desires, runs the risk of becoming an enemy of Christ.
