Sermon on the Mount - The Beatitudes

God chooses to give the most to and bless those who are desperate for Him. These are the ones who hold the kingdom of God. These are the ones who see Him.

God wants the broken, the desperate, the hungry, the needy, the humble in His kingdom.

His kingdom - in all its glory and splendor - is found in the dirt, the mud, in all the lowest places on earth. It's found in the worst of all brothels. In the bush of Uganda. In the slums of the world. In the destruction after a disaster. In the desert, the wilderness, where there is no food or water. In the prisons of the persecuted martyrs. In the soil stained with innocent blood.

This is where His love and beauty shine.

It is there for anyone to take hold of, but to get there you have to lower yourself to these places. That's what Jesus did, all for love's sake.

--Peace and Love.
