It could be found in the corner
of a pleasant garden
Or on the bank of a rippling stream.
of a green wood
Or on the top of a high mountain.
of a wilderness,
Or in the beauty of a green valley.
of a noisy crowd.
It could be found anywhere,
That quiet place to spend time with God.
His Promises
Purity Of Heart
God blesses those whose hearts are pure,
Purity of heart....is to will one thing, namely, full
and total allegiance to God. So if we ask, Where in the gospels did Jesus
explain purity of heart in this way, the answer would be Matthew 23:37, "You
shall love the Lord your God with all your heart." Not with part of your
heart. Not with a double or divided heart. That would be impurity. Purity
of heart is no deception, no double-mindedness, no divided
allegiance....Purity of heart is to will one thing, namely, God's truth and
God's value in everything we do.
The aim of the pure heart is to align itself with the truth of God and
magnify the worth of God. If you want to be pure in heart, pursue God with
utter single-mindedness. Purity of heart is to will that one thing.
