Matthew 5:8

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

From Background Notes [BN] for Sept 19th & 20th written by Pastor Bob Brown:

Kierkegaard observes the many distractions that turn life into many fragmentary lives; the singular into the plural. In a single statement he appeals to God (and to his audience) for “purity of heart that wills one thing.”



An impure heart is a divided heart, filled with conflicted loyalties and competing demands. Where will the heart turn? What will have the heart’s faithfulness? In this address, Kierkegaard explores the implications of his prayer in terms of how the heart becomes pure by willing one thing. [BN,13-14]
