The Value in Virtue

A virtuous person carries much value. Your name can depend on your virtue. (Prov. 30:10) A virtuous wife is the crown of her husband. (Prov. 12:4) This type of virtue comes at a price. We must always be willing to sacrifice everything for godly virtue. Joseph shows us the price of virtue when he refused Potiphar’s wife even to the point of imprisonment. (Gen. 39:7-20) This type of virtue is so valuable that it is a characteristic our shepherds are to have. (Titus1:8) The price payed for virtue is never anything we need or truly want. The price we pay for virtue is far outweighed by the reward of Heaven. We need to be alert and make sure we are making virtuous decisions always. There is extreme value in being a virtuous person.
