Over the last several Mondays, we have been looking at each segment of The Sermon on the Mount. Jesus continued to address the crowd:
“God blesses those who hunger and thirst for justice, for they will be satisfied.”
(Matthew 5:6, NLT)
Our need for food and water is a need basic to us all. Jesus speaks to the crowd in a manner they would be able to understand.
In those biblical times and region, food and water were not always in abundance or readily available. The people knew what it truly meant to be hungry and thirsty in the natural. They knew what it was to have these needs go unmet.
Jesus also knew the Jewish people would know and understand that the Law instructed them to love God, and to love their neighbor.
And so it is that we will be filled and satisfied when we seek to help and provide for those around us.
I hope you will join me at Woman to Woman Ministries HERE where I’ll share a beautiful quote from “The Good Life” by Dr. Derwin L. Gray.
