As Christians we are encouraged to pursue the good things in life such as righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience and, gentleness. These attributes will put us in good stead to walk the Christian walk in the way God has designed us to.
THOUGHTS TO PONDER ON
But you, O man of God, flee these things and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, gentleness. Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. (1 Tim 6:11-12)
For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. (Rom 14:17)
Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another. (Rom 14:19)
Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God. (Matt 5:9)
