Reflections on Humility: Lessons from Luke 18:9-14 - Weekly Reflection (26/10/2025)

This week we turn our attention to a compelling parable from the Gospel of Luke: the story of the Pharisee and the tax collector, who go to the temple to pray.

The Pharisee is a respected religious leader known for strict adherence to the law and boasts about his good deeds and looks down on others. however, the tax collector is often despised for working with the occupying Romans and perceived as a sinner by society, yet humbles himself and simply asks for God's mercy.

This passage is a profound lesson on humility, repentance, and the true posture of the heart before almighty God.
