Character

"Blessed are they that have been persecuted for righteousness' sake," Matthew 5:10.

Righteousness. Character of the righteous person. Conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, action. Inclusive term for the active duties of the religious life. Divine character originating in God's person. Justice. Goodness. Virtue. Decency. Integrity. Morality. Nobility. Blessed those who do it. Particularly, blessed having been persecuted because of doing it. Faithful to the end. What's the blessing? The sky kingdom belongs to such.

Today, we visit with a brother or a sister and remind each other to keep on keeping on. To share in the divine nature. No worries about the cost. And, together, to give thanks to a righteous and merciful and loving God.
