59.  Jesus chooses a people

 

Jesus wandered through Galilee. He taught in the synagogues and proclaimed the Gospel of God. He healed all those who were sick and suffering. Throughout the country people were talking about him. Men came to him from far and wide. Seeing that a large crowd had gathered, Jesus went up a hill. He sat down and his disciples joined him. He began to teach:

 

All those who know they are poor in the eyes of God can rejoice, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.

All those who are in sorrow can rejoice, for God will comfort them.

All those who do not resort to violence can rejoice, for God will give them possession of the earth.

All those who yearn that God’s will be done can rejoice, for God will fulfil their longing.

      All those who are merciful can rejoice, for God will have mercy on them.

All those who have a pure heart can rejoice, for they will see God.

All those who create peace can rejoice, for God will make them his children.

All those who are persecuted because they do God’s will can rejoice, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.

 

(Mt 4, 23-25; 5, 1-10)
