The search for Divine Love demands of man every effort of intellect, a sound will, an upright heart, as well as the witness of others who teach him to seek God (CCC, 30).
Purity of Heart
“Blessed are the Pure in Heart: They Shall See God” (Mt. 5:8)
How important is cultivating purity of heart for experiencing the presence of God? It is an endeavor of a crucial nature that culminates in an embrace of Divine Love beyond expression. “The day on which God has unrestricted power over our hearts we shall also have unrestricted power over his”—St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross
