Colossians 3:1-11; Ps.145; Luke 6:20-26

The realm of God

These words are revolutionary because they challenge our value systems. To be filled with joy or blessedness calls for a transformation from within. Listen to Jesus speak these words to you in the context of your life. Open your hands as you pray for the desire to live these attitudes. Think over what clutters your life or prevents you from being more in solidarity with others, especially those who are poor or suffering. Ask Jesus to prompt you to some action for someone or a group of people who suffer.
