Julio Ardura López : Powerful word, it is very true, that humbling oneself is a predisposition vessel to be filled with power, glory, love, mercy and compassion, which comes from our Lord Jesus Christ. It is the only way to honor him and that he be glorified through and through us as ambassadors here on Earth, that through us they see HIM. God bless you richly in everything Amen
