“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
Because these are truths about human nature, they last. A bit like great pieces of music remain favorites over decades and centuries; and great literature and poetry and art work long after the authors and artists have passed on -- because they embody great truths or great beauty.
When I refuse to indulge hurt feelings, refuse to react. When I can not-be-impressed by offenses, insults, anger, resentments, and ask instead, What does a totally good God who is Truth, who is Love, require of me today? And live the best I know how according to the answer.
