Beatitudes

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall receive mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Donna's Thoughts :

Jesus is the greatest teacher who ever lived. His words teach us the godly way to live our life. When we are busy and stressed out, we must get back to basics and remember to live the way Jesus taught us. Even when people are mean to us and treat us unfairly, we are called to take the high road.
Jesus promises us that if we live according to His teachings, we will be rewarded in Heaven.
