Nhà cầu nguyện

"Nhà Ta sẽ được gọi là nhà cầu nguyện của mọi dận tộc ư?
Thế mà các ngươi đã biến thành hang trộm cướp." (Mc 11,17)

Tâm hồn mỗi người cũng là một nhà cầu nguyện,
cần được thanh tẩy để nên tinh tuyền.
Nhưng tinh tuyền nghĩa là gì? 

Jesus Is Pure of Heart
Jesus, the Beloved of God, has a pure heart.
Having a pure heart means willing one thing.
Jesus wanted only to do the will of his heavenly Father.
Whatever Jesus did or said, he did and said it as the obedient Son of God:
"What I say is what the Father has taught me;
he who sent me is with me, and has not left me to myself,
for I always do what pleases him"
(John 8:28-29).
There are no divisions in Jesus' heart,
no double motives or secret intentions.
In Jesus there is complete inner unity
because of his complete unity with God.

Becoming like Jesus is growing into purity of heart.
That purity is what gave Jesus and will give us true spiritual vision.
