Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Convicted am I for my riches and holding back too much for myself.
Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
Convicted am I for celebrating over the graves of my fellow man.
Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
Convicted am I for proclaiming my superiority.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.
Convicted am I for being still in the face of need.
Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.
Convicted am I for holding a grudge—tightly.
Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God.
Convicted am I for covering myself in sin, and trying to use it as camouflage.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.
Convicted am I for my violent words and the verbal spears I throw.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Convicted am I for not stepping out , not speaking up, not drawing a line.
Enough!
