Episode Details

Some days feel unbearably heavy. New headlines and even historic ones can leave us feeling broken and undone. But Jesus gives us promise after promise in Matthew 5 that our current brokenness isn't the end of the story. Join Rick and McKenna for today's episode of The Morning Focus. Link is in the comments.

Blessed are the poor in spirit,

    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who mourn,

    for they will be comforted.

Blessed are the meek,

    for they will inherit the earth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,

    for they will be filled.

Blessed are the merciful,

    for they will be shown mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart,

    for they will see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers,

    for they will be called children of God.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness,

    for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:4-11
