Justice
The virtue of the week is JUSTICE.
The strength to have a constant and firm will to give God and neighbor their due.
Our lives are full of relationships and all of our actions impact others for good or evil.
Justice guides and perfects our actions in relation to others.
BIBLE QUOTES
Micah 6:8: “He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”
Proverbs 21:15: “When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.”
Isaiah 1:17: “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.”
Psalm 106:3: “Blessed are those who act justly, who always do what is right.”
CATECHISM QUOTE
Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 1807): "Justice is the moral virtue that consists in the constant and firm will to give their due to God and neighbor. Justice toward men disposes one to respect the rights of each and to establish in human relationships the harmony that promotes equity with regard to persons and to the common good."
The vice is INJUSTICE
The weakness to not give God and neighbors their due.
