Sacred Delight

"those people who know they have great spiritual needs are happy, because the kingdom of heaven belongs to them." Matthew 5:3

God promises sacred delight. And He promises it to an unlikely crowd:

• "The poor in spirit." Beggars in God's soup kitchen.
• "Those who mourn." Sinners Anonymous bound together by the truth of their introduction: "Hi, I am me. I'm a sinner." . . .
• "The merciful." Winners of the million-dollar lottery who share the prize with their enemies.
• "The pure in heart." Physicians who love lepers and escape infection.
• "The peacemakers." Architects who build bridges with wood from a Roman cross . . .
• "The persecuted." Those who manage to keep an eye on heaven while walking through hell on hearth.

It is to this band of pilgrims that God promises a special blessing. A heavenly joy. A sacred delight." - The Applesauce of Heaven
