Acts of Virtue

​

Even when the will is perverse - even when a creature is enthralled and captivated by one great sinful adhesion, which makes one's day a flight from God toward lust or power--even then some few good and commendable acts contradict one's general attitude.  These isolated acts of virtue are like a clean handle on a dirty bucket; with them, God can lift a soul to his peace. 

​

I, the LORD, 

am your Savior 

and your Redeemer.

Isaiah 60:16
