William Law Continues…

If our common life is not a common course of humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit, and heavenly affection, we do not live the lives of Christians.

A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life

Here Law lists off a few virtues of Christianity, virtues that cannot be neglected if I claim Christ as my Lord. The issue I face most often is remembering that humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit, and heavenly affection are actual things I do in my everyday life. It seems as though I have the ability to ignore these virtues when they get in the way of progress and advancement on earth.
