They are blessed who grieve, for God will comfort them. They are blessed who are humble, for the whole earth will be theirs. They are blessed who hunger and thirst after justice, for they will be satisfied. They are blessed who show mercy to others, for God will show mercy to them. They are blessed whose thoughts are pure, for they will see God. They are blessed who work for peace, for they will be called God’s children.

I would like to share a thought with you that is fundamental to our lives. It’s from Psalm 1: “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful.” This verse teaches us about the Christian life, about what it shouldn’t be. But what should it be?
Stories are how we make sense of the world. They’re also how we make sense of our work. In this plan, I’ll show how Scripture refutes the two most common stories our world tells about the meaning of work, and paint a picture of how God’s master narrative gives us the biggest story for our work and the rest of our lives.
Praying through scripture is a great way to refresh your prayer life. This 3-day plan centres on God's heart for a hurting world and offers practical ways to pray through His word.
"Blessed are those who mourn..." (Matthew 5:4, NIV) How is that supposed to work? Throughout Scripture, we are encouraged to have joy in all circumstances. Could there be a link between joy and mourning?
