Charity is preserved by means of humility, for there is nothing which destroys it so quickly as pride. Hence the Lord did not say: “Take up My yoke upon you and learn of Me,” to raise the dead, who had been in the grave four days; to cast out evil spirits from demoniacs; to heal diseases and work other similar miracles; but He did say:—“Take up My yoke upon you and learn of Me, because I am meek and humble of heart.” These miracles, indeed, are indications of spiritual things, but to be meek and humble is the preservative of charity.
