III. Christian Beatitude
1723
The beatitude we are promised confronts us with decisive moral choices. It
invites us to purify our hearts of bad instincts and to seek the love of God
above all else. It teaches us that true happiness is not found in riches or
well-being, in human fame or power, or in any human achievement – however
beneficial it may be – such as science, technology, and art, or indeed in any
creature, but in God alone, the source of every good and of all love:
