Daily Devotional:
Blessed are the poor in spirit . . .
-- Matthew 5:3
At the foundation of Jesus Christ's kingdom is the genuine loveliness of those who are commonplace. I am truly blessed in my poverty. If I have no strength of will and a nature without worth or excellence, then Jesus says to me, "Blessed are you, because it is through your poverty that you can enter My kingdom." I cannot enter His kingdom by virtue of my goodness -- I can only enter it as an absolute pauper.
--
Oswald Chambers
