MATTHEW 5 – BE FILLED
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6

In this world, there is everything for the flesh. We can fill our stomachs with every sweet treat under the sun. For the flesh, we can bathe our bodies with ointments of every kind, from the top of our head to the sole of our feet. The world compels us to fancy beauty, stardom, and wealth; filling our temples with every carnal glory under the sun.

And yet, no matter how much we serve our bodies, the appetite of the flesh continues to be unsatisfied.

Why may you ask? Because in this world, there may be everything for the flesh, but there is nothing for the soul. For in this world, we aren’t born into the land of the living, but of the dead. And in this land, it leaves the soul destitute, wanting, and grossly deprived.

This spiritual vacuum deep within man can only be satisfied by the life-changing power of the creator God. And for those who “hunger” and “thirst” after God’s righteousness, “shall be filled”!

Oh, there is so much in this world that we can fill our bodies with. Therefore, let us be wise and fill our spiritual pantries with God’s will. Let the saints of God feast on His word and drink of His spirit, for incredible blessings, await them who pursue God’s eternal righteousness

There is so much bad and hate in the world than there should be. I know there is so much good left in the world and I have seen it. There is one place I wanna go to after my time here on earth and with me being able to do that i’m going to spread love and the word of Jesus for as long as I live.

Yes, there can be many distractions here on earth during our lives. But we must never lose sight of our priorities and always put God first in our lives. During this Lent season, it’s a great time to make sure that we are putting Christ first and remembering all that He has done for us–all the way to the cross.
