Blessed are those who study hard and develop their talents, for they shall be sent out to feed my sheep.
Blessed are those who tell the truth and don’t gossip, for they shall be trusted.
Blessed are those who don’t bully and instead build up, for they will have lots of friends.
Blessed are those who are loyal to their friend Jesus, for they will share in his joy.
