32. Summer Shorts- Justice

We are back this week continuing our discussion on the cardinal virtues. This week we are focusing on Justice. Though it was a difficult topic for us to explain and even grasp, we truly fell in love with this virtue as it was so different than what we had originally thought.

Justice is the constant and firm will to give our due to God and neighbor (CCC 1807). It has two parts: First, it is knowing what is due to our neighbor.  Second, it is taking action of what we know is due to our neighbor.  An example that we give is a politician who knows what laws he/she should pass and actually acting on that even if it means losing the next election. This is true justice: doing what is best and right for others.

Truth and moral law are unchanging- we therefore need to look to the laws and teachings of Christ to know our foundation in order to be truly Just.
