We are those who are poor in spirit and, in Christ, we are blessed. The weakest, meekest, and most needing righteousness are the greatest in the kingdom of God. In this blessed state, we mourn, seek peace, and face persecution with hope. Hope that He makes our hearts pure and provide strength even in persecution for we are blessed by the grace and mercy of Christ. “Lord God, despite being poor in spirit, You call us blessed. Shower us with Your mercy and peace to be strengthened in persecution and trial as we rejoice knowing our reward is great in heaven. In Christ, Amen”
