A Pure Heart Is One That Is Unencumbered, Unworried, Uncommitted And Which Does Not Want Its Own Way About Anything But Which, Rather, Is Submerged In The Loving Will Of God.

Love Is As Strong As Death, As Hard As Hell. Death Separates The Soul From The Body, But Love Separates All Things From The Soul.

A Human Being Has So Many Skins Inside, Covering The Depths Of The Heart. We Know So Many Things, But We Don't Know Ourselves! Why, Thirty Or Forty Skins Or Hides, As Thick And Hard As An Ox's Or Bear's, Cover The Soul. Go Into Your Own Ground And Learn To Know Yourself There.

Now The Father Draws Us From The Evil Of Sin To The Goodness Of His Grace With The Might Of His Measureless Power, And He Needs All The Resources Of His Strength In Order To Convert Sinners, More Than When He Was About To Make Heaven And Earth, Which He Made With His Own Power Without Help From Any Creature. But When He Is About To Convert A Sinner, He Always Needs The Sinner's Help. "he Converts Thee Not Without Thy Help," As St. Augustine Says.

Outward As Well As Inward Morality Helps To Form The Idea Of A True Christian Freedom. We Are Right To Lay Stress On Inwardness, But In This World There Is No Inwardness Without An Outward Expression.
