Truly, contentment comes from following the Lord. On the other hand, those who don’t, will find despair. As for me and my house, we will follow the Lord.

Great and mighty, are your works Oh Lord. It is you who hold all things together. It is you who created the foundations of the earth. It is you who hold the stars in place and keep the oceans from covering the whole earth. Most wonderful, is that you love us, in spite of our imperfect ways, yet Jesus made us whole. You call us adopted sons and daughters. In all these troubled times, we are truly blessed.

Why government can’t save us. Jesus is the true Shepherd, but we are called to submit to government authorities, as long as it doesn’t conflict with our biblical principles.

Taken from the John MacArthur Study Bible

Blessed. The word lit. means “happy, fortunate, blissful.” Here it speaks of more than a surface emotion. Jesus was describing the divinely-bestowed well-being that belongs only to the faithful. The Beatitudes demonstrate that the way to heavenly blessedness is antithetical to the worldly path normally followed in pursuit of happiness. The worldly idea is that happiness is found in riches, merriment, abundance, leisure, and such things. The real truth is the very opposite. The Beatitudes give Jesus’ description of the character of true faith. poor in spirit. The opposite of self-sufficiency. This speaks of the deep humility of recognizing one’s utter spiritual bankruptcy apart from God. It describes those who are acutely conscious of their own lostness and hopelessness apart from divine grace (cf. 9:12 ; Lk 18:13 ). See note on 19:17 . theirs is the kingdom of heaven. See note on 3:2 . Notice that the truth of salvation by grace is clearly presupposed in this opening verse of the Sermon on the Mount. Jesus was teaching that the kingdom is a gracious gift to those who sense their own poverty of spirit.

11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength. Phil 4:11-13

Are we filled with the Holy Spirit through meditation on his word and prayer. We must remember that our words we speak have the power through his spirit to draw another to God. The other alternative, is that we are not in his spirit, and we have the power to send a person to the pit of hell, with ours and where our heart is.

The Bible, God’s spoken word, nourishes us like no other. It is like cool water on a hot day. It revives us like a hot meal, after a hard days work. It gives life, like a mother to a newborn child. Without it, we shrivel and die, like a plant without water.
