You see, it isnt about our circumstances; its about our hearts. Its about having been softened enough by the hardships of life and the grace of God to know how desperate we are. Its about knowing that theres no difference between us and them, that someone on the streets or behind bars or working as an exotic dancer is no more and no less in need of Gods mercy than we are. It means knowing that in our wealth, we are still poor and sharing the grace weve received. ~ Mike Cosper on The Beatitudes (Matthew 5)
