Thursday, March 1 – Read Matthew 4:23-5:12
Jesus begins his great Sermon on the
Mount with a series of teachings about what it means to be blessed. Except that
no one would pick out these conditions of life as blessed but him! What he sees
is that the coming of God’s kingdom will be a blessing to the poor, the
grieving, etc.
Reflection Questions: Do you see yourself anywhere in
Jesus’ list of the blessed? How does this make you feel?
Prayer: Dear God, let your kingdom quickly
come. At the very least, let it dawn in my heart. Amen.
