Pursuing after virtue

December 1, 2016

“If you pursue virtue, you will attain it and put it on like a festal gown.” Sirach 27:8

Human beings have two options: either they can pursue vice or virtue. Vice appears frequently in front of us and tries its best to entice us into following it. Virtue, on the other hand, after extending to us a gentle invitation to follow it, soon walks ahead of us along the road. We will be supremely happy if we disregard the call of vice and instead pursue after virtue. We will soon put it on like a festal gown and joyfully enter into the God’s wedding banquet
