Matthew Chapter 5

[1] And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:
[2] And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,
[3] Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
[4] Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
[5] Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
[6] Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
[7] Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
[8] Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
[9] Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

In these days and time, so many people are hurting; losing their jobs, homes and just trying to make ends meet. However, let's remember the words of Jesus when he taught the disciples and the multitude from the mountain top. He knows what we are going through and he knows what we need. If we just trust and obey, he will open doors that we cannot see.

Give. Pray. Give.
