Beatitudes (Matthew chapter 5)

Mattew chapter 5 starting with verse 3:Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4: Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted. 5: Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 6: Blessed are those who hunger and thirs for righteousness, for they shall be filled. 7: Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. 8: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10: Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11: Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you galseley for my sake. 12: Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

There are plenty of meanings in this passage…and most are believed to happened after we leave this world…but they’re not…some are meant for our happiness while we are yet still here…can you find truth in this?
