Humility

A thought about humility from Abba Anthony:

Anthony was confused as he meditated upon the depths of God’s judgments, and he asked God, ‘Lord, how is it that some die young and others grow old and sick? Why are there some poor and some rich? Why are there those who are bad and rich and oppress the good poor?’ He heard a voice saying to him, ‘Anthony, worry about yourself; these matters are up to God, and it will not do you any good to know them.’
