And raising his eyes toward his disciples he said: \u201cBlessed are you who are poor, for the Kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who are now hungry,\u00a0for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice and leap for joy on that day! Behold, your reward will be great in Heaven. For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way. But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.\u00a0Woe to you who are filled now, for you will be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will grieve and weep. Woe to you when all speak well of you,\u00a0for their ancestors treated the false prophets in this way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Opening Prayer:<\/b> Lord, teach me to seek your wisdom. Help me to trust that whatever comes my way, you are here with me and always want what is best for me. May I trust in your love and blessings when the way is difficult. Make me aware of my deep need for you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Encountering Christ:<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><b><\/b><span class=\"s1\"><b>Blessed or Cursed?:<\/b> Let\u2019s be honest: taken from a worldly or human perspective, Jesus\u2019 words seem preposterous. To be poor, to be hungry, to be weeping in sorrow, to be hated, excluded, insulted, and denounced as evil hardly seems like a blessing! In fact, when we experience any of this, we are more likely to feel cursed, abandoned, and forgotten by God. Few of us are spiritually evolved enough to \u201cgive thanks in all circumstances\u201d (1 Thess 5:18). In fact, our reaction is quite often the opposite\u2014we beg God to change things around until they are more to our liking!\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b><\/b><span class=\"s1\"><b>Spiritual Versus Physical:<\/b> Jesus\u2019 words sound quite different when we consider that he speaks of spiritual (rather than physical) states of being. \u201cBlessed are the <i>poor in spirit\u201d <\/i>(Mt 5:3) is what we find in Matthew\u2019s parallel account of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus\u2019 words suddenly make so much more sense. We are blessed when we are poor in spirit, when we hunger and thirst for righteousness, when we weep in sorrow at our own sin and need for salvation. And indeed, it does make sense that we will sometimes be hated, excluded, and denounced when we make the tough choices in order to follow Jesus instead of the world. Fortunately, Jesus is here to strengthen and console us.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><b><\/b><span class=\"s1\"><b>Woe to You:<\/b> Those who are \u201crich\u201d and \u201cfilled,\u201d in contrast, do not see their deep need for a savior. Confident in their own superiority, they dismiss their own sin, rationalizing whatever behavior brings them pleasure. Replete with satisfaction in the things of this world, they ignore thoughts of eternity. Since we know that this life, however beautiful and precious, is not the endgame, we stay focused on that time when \u201cevery tear will be wiped away\u201d (cf. Rev 21:4). \u201cEarth hath no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal\u201d (St. Thomas More).<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Conversing with Christ:<\/b> Lord, deepen my awareness of my own spiritual poverty.
