The catechism says the beatitudes are the heart of Jesus’ preaching that they reveal the goal of human existence. What would happen if you tried to live out the beatitudes every day for a week?
The catechism says in paragraph 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.”
