Gregory: purity of heart

Feast of Gregory the Great, Bishop of Rome, Teacher, 604
Meditation:
[Jesus:] “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.”
—Matthew 5:8 (NIV)

Quotation:
Purity of heart and simplicity are of great force with Almighty God, who is in purity most singular, and of nature most simple.
