THE BEATITUDES

BY: LAYNEY JOHNSON

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of god. This beatitude means many things. God is telling us that we should always believe in him. If we do not believe in him, we will not be able to live with him in heaven. We must be honest and truthful with God.

BLESSED ARE THEY WHO MOURN, FOR THEY WILL BE COMFORTED.

JESUS WANTS US TO KNOW THAT DEATH IS NOT THE END OF YOUR LIFE. YOU WILL STILL LIVE WITH GOD FOREVER. THIS IS CALLED ETERNAL LIFE

BLESSED ARE THE MEEK, FOR THEY WILL INHERIT THE LAND.

THIS MEANS THAT WE SHOULD BE KIND AND HUMBLE. IF WE DO SO, WE WILL ONE DAY INHERIT THE LAND. GOD WANTS US TO BE A GENTLE PERSON.

BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HUNGER AND THIRST FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS, FOR THEY WILL BE SATISFIED.

WE SHOULD DO WHATEVER WE CAN TO HELP OTHERS. WE COULD SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS. OR, IT COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS GIVING OTHERS FOOD AND WATER.

BLESSED ARE THE MERCIFUL, FOR THEY WILL BE SHOWN MERCY

WE SHOULD ALWAYS BE MERCIFUL. IF WE DO, WE WILL BE REWARDED. GOD WILL FORGIVE US EVEN IF WE ARE NOT.
