Courage, Wisdom, and Compassion in Everyday Life

Courage or Fortitude, Wisdom, Compassion and Endurance are considered graces because their force within the human spirit gives a person the capacity to endure or act with strength that even surprises the individual. These graces were named as essential to the Jewish Tree of Life. They are, in other words, a given part of the characteristics we must hone in ourselves but it is up to each of us to recognize their value. It is a choice to awaken the graces in you. It is a powerful choice that is actually a prayer, like saying, “I want to live in a field of grace.” Such a decision would change everything in your life in all ways you cannot see but in every way you can perceive.
