Kingdom of Heaven

At one time I never thought anything about it if I sneezed, and someone would say bless you. Later after I learned what being blessed meant I would get aggravated because I knew they did not know what it meant to be blessed. Today I have changed. Maybe they don’t know, but I see now it could be God saying that.

Read what Jesus said in Matthew 5:1-12 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 their’s is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn; for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness; for they shall be filled. Blessed are the pure in heart; for they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers; for they shall be called the children of God. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake; for their’s is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.”

Rejoice and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

After reading can you say at the end of the day you have been blessed? Let’s all be the light of the world. Rejoice and be exceeding glad; for great is your reward in heaven; for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
