Matthew 5 :1- 11
The Beatitudes
1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:
3 “ Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.


So, after reading this, I think there's so much I ought to do la.
I always ask myself this : am I being christ-like in all endeavours of life?

yes i agree, life is not a bed of roses, but what is it that ppl seek for in life that makes it interesting?
Often, I see people calling themselves christians, but when they actually do the things they actually do, speak and behave the way they do, it really tells a lot on how close this person walks with God.

The truth shall set you free. I know that, its clear. I know that ya, the things that people say point out something different in life, but my question is, what do you actually stand for?

You know I was in the canteen earlier on, and was just thinking to myself, It does'nt need a smart, intelligent, nor knowledgeable man to succeed in life. All it takes is a wise man.

A wise man is someone who knows what to do, speak and say at the right time. You see, people, in life, there are many different kinds of people you face everyday. whether they are dominant in character or not.

It does'nt matter, what matters most is yourself/

as i type, I open my heart to correction too, I am very confident of myself that I am learning and not boasting. Neither am i trying to put people down, or preaching, trust me, the things i say and do are genuine and they are never an element to hurt others.

For me, I am not afraid to be called a christian, and I am not afraid to frequently mention about the wonders of God in my life. Although my life maybe in a bad situation, I will never forsake Christ for anything.

At least I know where my foundation lies in. I know where my rock of securities stands at. I know that I have hope no matter how dashed and blurred my future or path may fall apart to.

I may feel downcasted and out, feeling trembled, despised and all, but I am not afraid, for I know that within the iniquities, I have someone BIG, STRONG, and somebody who cares and loves me, holds me close within His heart that stands with me.

for clearly I know His words speaks :

1 Corinthians 4:4 (New International Version - UK)

"my conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me."


and... " if Christ is with me, who else can be against me? "

I'll forever remember His faithfulness, and I forever called to His purpose.

Love, Hannah
