Matthew 5:6, Philippians 3:7-11 "Blessed"


            “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” We can never achieve righteousness by ourselves or through anything we can do. However, we are given the amazing promise that, while nothing on earth can be complete until we reach Heaven, when we get there, we will be filled. Until then, it is important, in our hunger and thirst for righteousness, to remember that we should be found in Christ. Any righteousness we receive is not by our works, but it from God and it is faith by which we receive it. All of our gain is as nothing because without God we could do nothing truly worthwhile.
