"There are great people who make others feel small. But the real great person is the one who makes others feel great." Is this one of the differences between a sinner and a saint. The sinner looks after self even at the expense of others. The saint, on the other hand, seeks the best of others before self. In the eyes of the world, the sinner may be perceived to be greater. But in the eyes of God, the saint is truly the great person. That is why we recognize them as saints: their greatness. Do you want to be great in the eyes of God or in the eyes of the world?
