Quo Vadis, Domine? Where are you going Lord?
The righteous life is always to act by principles, the end of the righteous life in the life in common, the communion, the eternal life, the sanctity (remember the justice is a form of error). The Commandment of Charity: "Love your neighbor as yourself" Mark 12:31 is express in the works as imitating Christ: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" Matthew 7:12.
Legend said that St. Peter was persecuted in Rome, flees and encounters a beggar. St. Peter recognizes him and asked: Quo Vadis, Domine? To which the beggar answered: to be crucified a second time. To which St. Peter returned to Rome and where he was finally crucified.
The Charity and the Rectitude, they seemed at some point not to be sufficient. We need something else: Perseverance and Fervor. We need the motivation of the fervor and resistance and the determination of the Perseverance. In difficult situations we need the greater gifts, the gifts that perfect the life in grace and summarizing:
"But earnestly desire the greater gifts", 1 Corinthians 12:31 and "But the one who endures to the end will be saved" Matthew 24:13.
