When you hear of someone that is "blessed," what do you think? Is it that things are going well for them, whether financially, health, family, or all of the above? Would it shock you to know that God wants things to work out for you to the point where you will experience ultimate satisfaction in life? At the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, he explained to his followers what it looks like to live a "blessed" life, and you might be surprised that it looks very different than we would imagine.
