a pure in heart person is controlled by GOD's priorities. he or she has their heart set on what GOD says is important.
so what is the result? if i start trying to be an honest, transparent person of integrity with unmixed motives, what is the result?
well happiness is a result. happy are the pure in heart. why? you're not faking it. you're not trying to be a phony, to pretend. but the opposite is also true: unhappy are the divided hearts – trying to please everybody.
some of you are trying to please a bunch of people and you're divided and you're unhappy. happiness is when you don't have any fear of being found out.
and they will see GOD. the result of having an unmixed motive of living for GOD no matter what is you get to see GOD in your life, your circumstances, in heaven. just as you don't see too well with dirty glasses, you don't see GOD too well with a dirty heart. you've got to clean it up.
just a thought from the front porch…
