St. Gabriel of Georgia on Humility and the Cross

The post presents two sayings attributed to St. Gabriel of Georgia. The first states that the more a person humbles himself, the more God reveals Himself to that person, and that this is the mystery of the saints. The second recounts a question asked to the saint about which cross is better to wear.

He answered that the best cross is the one received at baptism, but if that is not available, it is better to wear a cross depicting the Crucified Christ. The post offers these teachings without additional commentary or discussion.

Main points

  • Humility leads to greater divine revelation.
  • The mystery of the saints is found in humility.
  • The best cross to wear is the baptismal cross.
  • If the baptismal cross is absent, a cross with the Crucified Christ is preferable.
