Daily Reflection with Venerable Fulton SheenVenerable Fulton Sheen · Feb 8, 2026

Do good people know they are good -- Truly good people are always unconscious of their goodness. Nothing embarasses a spiritual person as much as to be to told that he is spiritual. The closer we get to God, the less we aware of being pleasing to God. Let me explain. If you take a painting and examine it by candlelight, the definitions seem rather good and the colors well chosen. But if you put it in the light of the sun, then all the defects stand out When we compare ourselves with other people, we seem good; when we compare ourselves with God, we are nothing.")
