"Chase after righteousness, faith, love, peace, alongside people who make their appeal with pure hearts to the Lord," 2 Timothy 2:22.
Kind of weird to even talk about this, but. How to eat one's morning cereal from a bowl that last night was used as a chamber pot? One cleans it real good. Scrub. Bleach. Soap. Boiling water. (And likely more.) That's how. Don't want no unclean mixtures in the cereal! The Bible lays it out: Bowls for honorable use, and bowls for dishonorable use. When anyone purifies themselves from dishonorable use, then they're ready for the honorable. (That's what it says.) Unmixed heart. Noble heart. Singleness of heart. Not of double heart. Whole heart. Pure heart. See God. Hearts scrubbed pure by Jesus' blood.
Today, alongside a brother or sister, we call on the Lord with all our heart. Together we give thanks. And we anticipate seeing God face to face, tomorrow.
