Jesus said, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled” Matthew 5:6
For what are you hungering and thirsting? The way we clutch our possessions and our pennies, you’d think we couldn’t live without them. The problem is, the treasures of earth don’t satisfy. The promise is, the treasures of heaven do. Blessed are those, then, who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Blessed are those who are totally dependent upon Jesus for their joy.
Let today be marked by a deep hunger, a craving for God. May you live this day thirsty… thirsty for what is right. “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”
