Foresight

January 21, 2025
By

The strength this week is FORESIGHT. The strength to think ahead and consider what if or what might happen.

Link to the slide deck

The Baltimore Catechism defines occasion of sin as “all the persons, places and things that may easily lead us into sin.” 

And in one version of the Act of Contrition we say, “I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to sin no more, and to avoid the
near occasions of sin.”
We’re well-intentioned but we’re also weak, sinful creatures and we easily give into temptation.
Don’t test the limits of your moral strength. If something is going to lead you into sin, avoid it.

"Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning." (Luke 12:35)

The vice is UNPREPAREDNESS. The weakness of failing to think ahead and prepare.

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” - Benjamin Franklin

“How insignificant earth seems to me when I consider Heaven.” - St. Ignatius of Loyola

Circumspection

January 13, 2025
By

The strength to carefully consider all circumstances and possible consequences.

If you are circumspect, you think carefully before doing or saying anything.
It implies a desire to avoid mistakes and bad consequences.
It enables one to look around and see how our action may impact others.

The vice is CARELESSNESS. The weakness of failing to give sufficient attention to danger, errors or acting correctly.

“Occupy your minds with good thoughts, or the enemy will fill them with bad ones. Unoccupied they cannot be.”
- St. Thomas More

“Anyone who seeks truth seeks God, whether or not he realizes it.”
- St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
