Day Eight // February 25 // Whatever is Pure “Best of all is it to preserve everything in a pure, still heart, and let there be for every pulse a thanksgiving, and for every breath a song.” – Konrad von Gesner –
There is a story of a spiritual master who became a legend in his lifetime. It was said that God once sought his advice: “I want to play a game of hide and seek with humankind. I’ve asked my angels: where is the best place to hide? Some say the depths of the ocean. Others, the top of the highest mountain. Others still say the far side of the moon or a distant star. What do you suggest?” The spiritual master responded, “Hide in the human heart. That’s the last place they will think to look.” That’s where God wants to live. Jesus said, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God” (Matthew 5:8). Our goal is to let our hearts beat with Jesus’ values. To be real. To be authentic. When our hearts are pure, every part of life is ministry.
