Matthew 5:3-5 – HAPPY HUMILITY

The word “blessed” means happy.  The beatitudes teach us how to be spiritually happy!  A key part of this happiness has to do with being humble, especially before God. To be truly happy we should be: 

SPIRITUALLY SHORT – “poor in spirit” – Vs. 3

SPIRITUALLY SORROWFUL – “they that mourn” – Vs. 4

SPIRITUALLY SUBMISSIVE – “the meek” – Vs. 5
