Episode 59 -- Spiritual Combat c35 -- Daily Advice, Scriptures, Arrow Prayers for a Virtue

What is the best way to acquire a particular virtue?

In this episode we turn to chapter 35 in which Fr. Scupoli exhorts us to be courageous in seeking after virtue. He provides some very helpful means of acquiring virtues. He suggests things to do early in the morning, throughout the day, and for times of trials.

We saw last episode that acquired virtues require time and are obtained by degrees. We saw how virtues are connected and united. Our goal is to be perfect as our Heavenly Father is perfect. Our desire is to be a true servant of Jesus Christ. To this end, we must seek the grace of the Holy Spirit, the Source of all grace.
