I wish I could tell you that I have led a flawless life and developed a spotless character, that ‘there’s no problem here Jack’, alas it wouldn’t be true.
Jesus would say;
“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God”
Do you want to see him? This blessing belongs not to those who believe they are strangers to evil,but to those who face their weaknesses and are purified in the process.
We know the struggles we have with our motivations, actions, words, deeds. We know it even when those around us don’t, when we hide the real me. We can see God when we can see ourselves, when stumbling blocks in ourselves that we would like to deny or disguise or pretend they are not there, do not shade our eyes.
The sight of God is delivered to those who refuse to be blinded by their own conflicts, with eyes that sprout wrinkles from looking steadily toward the truth.
