Jesus speaks of salt and light. He wants to inspire us to honor the Almighty Creator in ways that are like these elegant and essential things. Jesus draws close to us and guides us with the insight of his own spirit and character.

The Beatitudes by Jen Norton

Jesus said a lot of amazing things, but in the speaking of what we call the Beatitudes he almost seems deliberate in wanting to surprise us. He is trying to tell us that God’s love and compassion for us is so deep that he will bless us even in the most unexpected situations. May God so bless us with discerning hearts of wisdom to be able to see that we are truly blessed in infinite and eternal ways by God above all else.

Jesus walked north to Galilee and did many things. There he wanted to fulfill the prophecy of Isaiah, that light would shine on those living in darkness. Jesus called four fishermen to be His first disciples. Jesus healed “every disease and sickness among the people.”  Jesus was beginning what God is doing now today, caring for us, in the infinite and eternal ways of God.
