Bible in a Year (not a day)

Today I did read a portion of my Bible, but it wasn't "assigned". I read the Sermon on the Mount. Matthew 5-7. It's amazing everytime I read it. There are just some things that get to you. This HAS to be one of them.


" Blessed are those who are spiritually needy.
The kingdom of heaven belongs to them.
Blessed are those who are sad.
They will be comforted.
Blessed are those who are free of pride.
They will be given the earth.
Blessed are those who are hungry and thirsty for what is right.
They will be filled.
Blessed are those who show mercy.
They will be shown mercy.
Blessed are those whose hearts are pure.
They will see God.
Blessed are those who make peace.
They will be called sons of God.
Blessed are those who suffer for doing what is right.
The kingdom of heaven belongs to them.

Blessed are you when people make fun of you and hurt you because of me. You are also blessed when they tell all kinds of evil lies about you because of me. Be joyful and glad. Your reward in heaven is great. In the same way, people hurt the prophets who lived long ago."

This is just the beginning of the MANY ENDLESS blessings of God. He bless all of us. He shows us mercy, He listend to us, He is building up Heaven right now, making homes for us all there. AND trust me, He KNOWS when someone is pure and when someone is just ACTING pure.

There are quite a few guide lines in this section. Talk about rules! There are things about Divorce, Promises, Kindness, Murder...the list goes on.. But more on this later. Glancing ahead this is actually another days thing.
