    Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into the 5th Beatitude, found in Matthew 5:7: “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” In a world where mercy was once seen as weakness, Jesus declares that mercy is a blessing! But what exactly is mercy? It’s loving kindness shown through acts of compassion, even toward the undeserving. It’s feeding the hungry, caring for the sick, and giving back when others expect nothing. Jesus says when we serve others with mercy, we are actually serving Him. And when we offer mercy to others, God responds by showing mercy to us. 🙏 Let’s strive to live lives marked by mercy today; meeting needs not out of obligation but out of the grace that God has shown us. 🌿 That’s truth worth pursuing, and this is truth worth living! #TruthWorthLiving #Beatitudes #BlessedAreTheMerciful #Mercy #ServeWithCompassion #FaithJourney #KingdomLiving

    Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we’re diving into the fourth beatitude found in Matthew 5:6: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” At first glance, it may seem that Jesus is calling for go-getters who will strive to achieve righteousness with all their might. But actually, Jesus is blessing the longing for righteousness, not the achievement of it. He’s not asking us to work ourselves to the bone trying to earn it because pursuing righteousness is not about checking off boxes or keeping the law perfectly. Rather, it’s about recognizing our need for Him. Just like the first three beatitudes, those who hunger and thirst for righteousness are blessed when they realize that only Jesus can satisfy that longing. The law shows us where we fall short—but Jesus meets us with grace and fills us. In His kingdom, there’s a blessing for those who turn to Him with their deepest needs. 🙏 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” THAT is truth worth living. #TruthWorthLiving #Beatitudes #Blessed #Righteousness #SeekJesus #FaithJourney #BibleStudy #KingdomLife

    Welcome back to Truth Worth Living, where we seek to understand God’s word so we can live in God’s will. Today, we continue our journey through the Beatitudes, where Jesus shares the surprising blessings found in God’s kingdom. In Matthew 5:5, Jesus says: “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” To the crowd on that mountainside, this statement was shocking—meekness didn’t get you ahead in life, it got you pushed around. But Jesus was turning the world’s values upside down. He wasn’t talking about the meekness of resignation, where people shrink back out of fear or insecurity. Jesus was talking about the meekness of resolution—where true strength is held back for the sake of others. Think of it like this: You have the power to knock out a horse with one punch (like legendary boxer Joe Louis), but you choose patience and gentleness instead. That’s the kind of meekness Jesus blesses in His kingdom. This meekness isn’t weakness—it’s strength under control, driven by a deep sense of who we are in Christ. Meekness by resolution is a quality worth cultivating, and this is truth worth living! 🙏✨ #TruthWorthLiving #TheBeatitudes #Meekness #StrengthUnderControl #ChristianLiving #FaithJourney #BlessedLife #JesusTeaches
