“Blessed are the poor in spirit,for theirs is the kingdom of heaven”. Amen
We often quantify the blessings of God only in material or monetary terms. In our minds, people with cash, cars, power and fame are very blessed by God.
Not withstanding the high possibility of the above, there is yet another kind of blessing that is not expressed in material wealth, rather in “being poor in spirit”.
Thats a sharp contrast right? How can being “poor” in anything be a blessing?
Well One is said to be “poor in spirit” when he/she recognises their void without God and as such depend solely on HIM!
It is a rather humble acknowledgement that all we are and have is from the Lord. Hence our willingness to invite Him everyday into our every situation and then wait patiently on Him for provision.
In fulfilling His promise to reward all who diligently seek Him, God invariably rains awesome blessings over all who are “poor in spirit”; Making them rather rich and blessed in all things.
As expected, these blessings received from God always surpasses human comprehension, they stand the test of time and has eternal value. What else could be this better?
Begin to pray for more insight into this revealation.. Experience the blessings of Heaven here on earth: Wont you rather “Be poor in spirit”?
