Feast of Oswald, King of Northumbria, Martyr, 642

[Jesus:] “For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”
—Luke 14:11 (NIV)
Quotation:

... Frederick Brotherton Meyer (1847-1929), The Secret of Guidance, New York: Fleming H. Revell Co., 1896, p. 10 (see the book)
