So many blessings God wants to bestow upon those who are suffering. The meek, the poor in spirit, the persecuted – God has blessings for us all. Whether we are downtrodden and discouraged or under spiritual attack, God already has rewards set out for us. And He blesses those who try to do His will – the peacemakers, the merciful, the clean of heart – trying to tell us that following Him may not always be fun or easy but it is worthwhile.
May we find opportunities to live out the beatitudes every day.
