Every human being is spiritually destitute and helpless in God’s sight. But it’s only those who realize their own spiritual poverty and mourn over their sinfulness – that will inherit the kingdom of heaven. Today we tend to point out a person’s strengths, beauty, and accomplishments, rather than their spiritual deficiencies. The poor are commonplace among us…but it says that I am truly blessed in my poverty. So think about this, I in myself have nothing that would allow me to enter God’s kingdom. I cannot enter by virtue of my goodness, strengths, or accomplishments – I can only enter as an absolute beggar with nothing to offer but my faith.
