When you think of virtue, do you think of your own good deeds? Or of someone elses?
This certainly reveals much about my heart!
A mature Christian will always spot the virtue in her friend, and the sin in herself. It is a sign of immaturity to find sin in others, while highlighting virtue in oneself.
=======================
Do we seek the good of others? Or of ourselves?
