Victory Vida

We live in a world that glorifies using power to our own advantage. It sends the message that we have achieved success when we can use our position to be served. But the kingdom of God is not like that. Jesus redefined greatness when He said, “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” So, what is meekness and what does it produce in us?

In Matthew 5:4, Jesus says these words: “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” While grief can feel heavy and all consuming, He has promised us comfort when we choose to acknowledge it rather than numb the pain.

We have the hope of true comfort in the One who has known grief for Himself but has overcome it all. We are blessed!
