Maturity
To be vigilant in maintaining ones responsiblemindedness and ability to act correctly. This will
maintain and also strengthen a mature Christian
personality.
Human virtues acquired by education, deliberate acts
and by perseverance are purified and elevated by
divine grace.
Everyone should ask for grace and strength, frequent
the sacraments, docile to the Holy Spirit, and follow
his calls to love what is good and reject evil (CCC
1811).
