Arrgh, He Went There!

Blessed are the pure in heart,
​​For they shall see God.
  -- Matthew 5:8

If the Beatitude about mercy seems the easy one, the next one brings the feet of clay right back to the Earth they came from. I can't speak for you, but my purity of heart just ain't. And one prophet of old agrees with me with a direct quote from the Lord:

The heart is deceitful above all things,
And desperately wicked;
Who can know it?
  -- Jeremiah 17:9

So, if the Beatitudes are the map to Jesus, who will lead us on the journey from ain't pure to purity? Of course it makes sense to us to ask the One who gave us the map. For it was Jesus who said to us... wait for it... "I am the way, the truth, and the life!" (John 14:6).

Follow the Way by way of His map!
