Niphon, Patriarch of Constantinople, once tested a monk's humility. Disguised as a beggar, he repeatedly asked the monk for alms. Each time, the monk gave generously. Finally, Niphon revealed his true identity, praising the monk's unwavering compassion and reminding everyone that true virtue lies in selfless giving. Pray that we may all emulate Niphon's discernment and the monk's boundless generosity, reflecting God's love in our actions.
