The rich man may seem wise in his own eyes, but it is often the
poor who, with his spiritual intelligence, perceives the truth of life. This contrast reminds us of the importance of
humility and faith in our journey. As it is written in
proverbs 28:11 , "The rich man is wise in his eyes; but the poor intelligent knows him." By meditating on these words, we are invited to seek the
divine wisdom rather than that of the world.
