The View From The Mountain Top

Get A Clear View

Tucked into the passage known as the Beatitudes, Jesus said: “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” (Matt. 5:8). This is not just for the few who try to achieve it, but for all who will humbly receive it. To have a heart that is clean in God’s eyes, we need to accept the Father’s pardon through Christ His Son. “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse [purify] us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9).

The Mountain Top View

A mountaintop is a great place to see the stars,
To get a great view of the God's heavens
To feel closer to Jupiter and Mars
One just feels closer to his creator God

But to clearly see God requires a change of heart.
By faith in God I have a clearer vision of Him
His blessed word gives me a rich new start
Giving me a clear vision of my creator God

When I come down from the mountain top part
I need to keep looking up, to the one
Who created it all, putting the view off the chart
For He is the Great Creator God

For I have eyes that are a distorted art
By themselves they cannot see the beauty
On tell up on the mountain top I see His art
From there I treasure the heavenly view
By Peter C. Salmond

SO, to get a clear view of God, focus on Jesus Christ.
