Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” The Apostle John said it another way: whoever does evil has not seen God. Therefore, if we do good, we will also see God.
“See that no one repays anyone evil for evil, but always seek to do good to one another and to everyone.”
(1 Thessalonians 5:15)
All good comes from God. There is no evil in God, for His very spirit is pure and undefiled. What is evil? Sin is evil. Breaking God’s law is evil. We, however, have hope in Jesus. He paid the penalty of sin for us, and because of it, we have salvation.
What is good? Good is to love God and to love others as we love ourselves. We ought to honor and worship God, honor our parents, keep others safe, be faithful to the one we love, be honest with one another, keep our word, and be happy with what we have.
When we do good, we are seeing as God sees, for our heart is His heart and our love is His love working in us. Blessed is our God for He is good and whoever does good is from God. Always seek to do good.

I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.
Isaiah 45:7
Amen! Thank you, Jack for the reminder in very simple terms.
God bless you!
“Always seek to do good” is great way to love and serve the Lord. Thanks, Jack. 🙂
May Jesus’ grace be upon you, Nancy!
I always try to do good, do I fail at times, yep sure do, does God know and understand that, he does. Failing to do good isn’t a sin as long as we didn’t set out to fail, if we are doing the best we are able to do God knows and understands after all he did create us.
God is merciful, kind and gentle. He is always waiting for us in everything we do. May he bless you, Joanne.
Always uplifting and good. You help me stay on track when I want to retaliate against evildoers. Thank you, Jack Flacco.

Amen, brother Jack. It is an excellent post!
May God’s peace be with you, Chris!
Thank you, Jack. And may His peace be with you as well!
In the Sermon on the Mount, when Jesus says, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God,” it emphasizes the purity of heart that leads to a deeper connection with God. It’s a call to seek purity not just in actions but in intentions and attitudes, aligning ourselves with God’s nature.
The hope we have in Jesus and the salvation He offers is a central part of this journey. Because of His sacrifice, we’re empowered to live in a way that aligns with God’s will, guided by His love and grace. As we strive to do good, we are participating in the divine nature that God has instilled in us.
Thank you for reminding us of the importance of living out our faith through acts of goodness and love. It’s a beautiful way to honor God and to see Him working in and through us.
All glory to God in the highest. God bless, Willie.
Amen
Jack, your faith always brings me cheer and hope. You are a treasure to me. Thanks for all that you do.
May God bless you always, Michael.
And you as well, Jack.
