If he was chosen for this task, when I think of the first beatitude, I can not help but imagine that this is one of the characteristics of @Sirknight, "Poor in spirit"; otherwise, he would not have been able to see what God had sown in his heart.
- Being poor in spirit refers to the humble heart that has been touched by God.
- Recognize publicly when you have made a mistake.
- Has a good internal attitude of the heart in relation to God and his neighbor accordingly.
- He has received the word of God and put it to work.
- He loves God and knows that with him he can do everything.
When I was meditating how to write this message and apply it to the world today, God immediately made me think of a man who has put the best of his effort to bless the lives of many, who is passionate about Kingdom things, who dreams of make many people happy, this message, which is the first of the Beatitudes, I dedicate to you @SirKnight: for being as you are, a man according to the heart of God, and sure of every day, he will add what is needed so that fulfill that purpose for which you are here. The Beatitudes will be like a ladder in your life, Beatitudes (happiness) will follow you every day and you will be fortunate, because God has placed you in front of a people, so that you build lives, your greatest reward It will not be material but spiritual, just as there are people who will pass and will not have any effect, there are men and women with multiplying effects of what you have sown in them, which will be translated into love for you, genuine love, love that until now you begin to feel, love of the spiritual children that God has placed in your life.
A person poor in spirit is the person who is clothed with humility, disinterested, generous ... is a very detached person, does not mind sharing everything for nothing and meets the characteristics of the other Beatitudes. Unlike Luke, Matthew specifies that poverty is of spirit, and that even being rich in possessions, one can be poor in spirit.
In the same way there are many poor people who have been financially and lack spiritual poverty, because the poor in spirit is a virtue that has been given by God, someone who has recognized his spiritual misery, has been deprived of all pride and has come to be full of God's spirit.
Promise of blessing for the poor in spirit: my eyes will be upon you.
The book of Revelation 2: 9 tells us: "I know your works, and your tribulation, and your poverty of spirit (but you are rich), and the blasphemy of those who claim to be Jews, and they are not, but synagogue of satan
Certainly the poor in spirit has nothing to do with poverty or material wealth, in this it is clearly understood that the message that Jesus Christ gives to the church in Smyrna, tells them that because they are poor in spirit, they are rich.
The poor in spirit are not people who boast of false poverty, nor humility, they are people who demonstrate their aptitude through the work that Jesus Christ has done in his life.
