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?

There can be, of course, an inordinate focus on our sin, after all, Jesus wouldn't sell His life for something of no value; but we should always see our sin before our brothers...
