Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
Matthew 5:3
Poor in Spirit doesn’t actually mean you are poor financially. It means you remember that God has all power and is all knowing. Instead of living our lives trying to be the most successful, people who are poor in spirit would give up their lives for the lord.

Mourning is feeling sad with deep sorrow. A good friend will also feel sorrow when their friend is upset. If you are a good person who can put others before themselves and feel sorrow when your closest of friends / family is sad, then you will be and feel comforted.

If you want to be a peacemaker and spread peace you need to have it first. Just like if you wanted to spread happiness you would need to be happy first. Jesus spread his message and peace all over the world. If we all strived to be like Jesus and spread peace then we will be called children of God.
