Blessed Are… Those Who See God

“Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
Matthew 5:8

“I allow the question to surface, if only for a moment, “What is God?” Not “who” but “what”? What are You, Lord? What is this Reality that transcends it all and yet graciously chooses to meet with us? “They shall see God.” What shall they see?”
– Darrell Johnson (The Beatitudes)
