Shnikey! All of this IAM NOT! Not worldly purity much less heavenly.
I am hopelessly unable to do anything about it. But YOU, YOU can do it. I
choose to keep my eyes focused on YOU and You alone today. You are my only hope.
You will accomplish all in my heart and mind that needs to be done. What would I
do without YOU. sigh. smile. J Contented rest.
Turn your eyes upon
Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow
strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace.
Adaptation
for me today:
I’ll keep my eyes upon You, Jesus
I’ll look full
in Your WONDERFUL face
And the sins of my heart will grow increasingly
dim
In the light of YOUR glory and grace.

Deeper meaning
But the words of Jesus, "Blessed are the pure in heart," have a deeper meaning--not merely pure in the sense in which the world understands purity, free from that which is sensual, pure from lust, but true in the hidden purposes and motives of the soul, free from pride and self-seeking, humble, unselfish, childlike. {MB 25.1}
