Pride's remedy

Coming before the Most Blessed Sacrament in Eucharistic Adoration enlightens us to our many faults and heals them.  Speaking specifically of the sin of pride St. Cyril of Alexandria stated:

"If the power of pride is swelling up in you, turn to the Eucharist; and that Bread, Which is your God humbling and disguising Himself, will teach you humility."

St Cyril of Alexandria

370-444

Bishop, Doctor of the Church

Preeminent role at Council of Ephesus

This Council defined the inseparable unity

of the divine and human natures of Christ,

and thus the appropriateness of invoking the Blessed Virgin Mary

under the title of "Theotokos" or Mother of God.

"In Cana of Galilee Christ changed water into wine,

and shall we think Him less worthy of credit

when He changes wine into His Blood?” ~ St Cyril of Alexandria

St Cyril of Alexandria, ora pro nobis!
