“abundance” fight? What is this?

I like how LaTeX handles this nicely for you.

Then, as Paul says in 2 Corinthians, we can comfort those who are afflicted, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. And so we can be agents of God’s restoration in the world.

“Blessed” says Jesus, “are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”

In mourning sin, we align ourselves with the heart of God. And so it is when we mourn that the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, works in our lives.

But Jesus says blessed are those who mourn. Mourning our own sins. Mourning for the sins of others. Mourning for those yet lost in their sins. Mourning for a world that is torn and broken by sin. For it is those who mourn who shall be comforted, both now and in the world to come.

We live in a world that is broken and marred by sin. Sometimes it seems easiest to look away. Sometimes we want to excuse our own actions or those on our “side”, whether that be friends, family, denomination, political organizations, etc.

“The Lord watches over the strangers;
He relieves the fatherless and widow;
But the way of the wicked He turns upside down.”

“Open your mouth for the speechless,
In the cause of all who are appointed to die.
Open your mouth, judge righteously,
And plead the cause of the poor and needy.”
Proverbs 31:8-9

In Philippians 3, Paul says that he considers all of his own accomplishments as rubbish in order that he might gain Christ & be found in Him, not having his own righteousness under the law, but Christ’s by faith.

“Blessed”, says Jesus, “are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

It is the truly humble, those who know that there is nothing good in themselves apart from God, who inherit the kingdom. When we rely on our own righteousness, our own moral superiority, we will miss the kingdom of heaven.

Well, when you put it that way...
