In the Bible we read, \u201cGod blesses those whose hearts are pure, for they will see God.\u201d What does that mean about they will see God? Does that mean at the moment that their hearts are pure? Does that mean when they move on to heaven? What does it mean? Such a great question. Actually, such great questions. And here\u2019s my answer: I don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What I do know is this. God blesses us every day. Every single day! When you wake up, you are blessed. When you step out into the creation, you are blessed. Eating. Breathing. Talking with others. Going to work. Having children or grandchildren. The list goes on, and on, and on. He blesses us: Every! Single! Day! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He does so because he loves us. Not because we deserve it. No way. We don\u2019t deserve anything. We especially don\u2019t deserve the fact that Jesus died for us on the cross. None of us deserve that. We can\u2019t even earn it. That sacrifice was made because he loves us. But in order to see him, we need to have pure hearts. To be in his presence, we need to have pure hearts. Maybe it\u2019s time to take a moment and pray to God. Let him know your thoughts. Let him know your struggles. Let him know what you are going through. And ask him to make your heart pure. And he will. Jesus is the key to eternity. And maybe, just maybe, being saved means you need to have a pure heart. I know you will struggle with that. I do too. But I do not struggle with knowing that our Lord and Savior loves us. And he wants us to see him. And for that I am thankful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
