 Beatitudes. Blessed are they that mourn.  Fr.Victor Potapov.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
For much as after a violent burst of rain, says Saint John Chrysostom, there is a clear open sky; so likewise when tears are pouring down, a calm arises, and serenity, and the darkness that ensues on our sins quite disappears (Homily 6 on the Gospel according to Matthew).
Mourning over sins, writes Saint Demetrius of Rostov, washes the soul, whitens every darkening, cleanses the conscience, enlightens the mind, loosens sinful bonds, and expiates the handwriting of iniquities.
Those who sorrow over their fallen condition and the sinful world will rejoice in the future age, according to the Savior's word: Verily, verily, I say unto you, that ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy (John 16:20).

It is not without reason that the Lord entrusted Apostle Peter with the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven while He Himself kept the keys of hell and death.
As St. Demetrius of Rostov explains, this is so that even the great saints, in the imperfectibility of their human nature, do not consign to hell those souls who, by some secret deeds of virtue revealed to God alone, deserve to inherit the Kingdom of Heaven.
Lastly, the words of the Saviour show that our anxiety and our confusion stem not from others but from our own selves, from our lack of meekness and humility.
