—Matthew 5:1-16

Most of us are very familiar with this passage; many of us even memorized the Beattitudes as children. In the materials that I received for this writing assignment, however, the section is referred to as “Blessing for God’s people.” When we live in accordance with God’s will and his desires, we are not living a legalistic life where our worth is determined by rules and laws. As we turn more and more of our lives over to the Lord and surrender to his plan for us, we are truly blessed!
The Sabbath is one of God’s many blessings to us. Today, strive to use the day in the way that God would like; make this Sabbath a blessing!
