And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him: And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
– Matthew 5:1-4
What a beautiful way to open the day, The beginning of the Sermon on the Mount always feels like Jesus pulling His disciples close and saying, “Let Me tell you what the Kingdom really looks like.” Those first blessings are so tender: Poor in spirit; the ones who know their need, who come empty‑handed, who lean on God because they’ve run out of their own strength. Those who mourn; the ones carrying loss, grief, or sorrow, yet are promised divine comfort, not just someday, but in the very presence of God drawing near.I hope your day is gentle, steady, and full of small graces that remind you you’re not walking alone.
