Morning Virtue

A few nights ago, my husband was reading before we went to sleep and started to read out loud about virtue. Since then that word has been stuck in my mind.
The definition of Virtue is: Virtue (Latin: virtus, Greek: ἀρετή "arete") is moral excellence. A virtue is a trait or quality deemed to be morally excellent and thus is valued as a foundation of principle and good moral being.
It gets me thinking about the patterns I live out daily. Are they virtuous? Does my morals and standards reflect having Virtue? Being gentle, forgiving, loyal, confident, compassionate, honest, sensitive, considerate, and determined are all examples virtues I want to live out every day. I pray God will allow me to pattern these characteristics in my daily life, no matter how crazy my surroundings may be.  I encourage all of you to take a few moments to see what having Virtue really is.
Have a fantastic day everyone!
