blessed are....
Just 2 quotes based on the sermon of the mount Christianity Today's "Relfections"
"It is really the poor in spirit who can, actually, have anything, because they are the ones who know how to receive gifts. For them, eveyrthing is a gift."
Simon Tugwell, The Beautitudes: Soundings in Christian Traditions
" Humility, or powverty of spirit, is not a matter of thinking low thoughts about ourselves. It is not a matter of grovelling in the dust. It is simply a matter of knowng ourselves as we really are. And when we see ourselves as we really are, we will see that we are poor."
John W. Miller, The Christian way.
Doesn't that strike you about a certain sort of Gospel? Gonna be really thankful...
