Happy are the Hungry (Matthew 5:6)

The Lord said, “Happy are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, they will be filled.” Have you ever been hungry or thirsty? In our culture, we struggle to understand hunger or thirst. But, in the Lord’s culture, hunger and thirst could be a normal condition for people. The Lord took the normal physical aspect of hunger and thirst and applied it spiritually. Every one of us should have a hunger and thirst for the Lord that cannot be satisfied. Do you? Today’s message focuses on why it is important for each one of us to hunger and thirst after righteousness.
