This week we launched our new series, “Living in the Kingdom,” by looking at the Beatitudes as Jesus’ surprising vision of the good life. Rather than power, control, and comfort, Jesus calls “blessed” those who are poor in spirit, mourning, and meek—because that’s exactly where His kingdom draws near and real flourishing begins.
Set aside 10–15 minutes this week to honestly answer this question: “What do I really believe will make me flourish?” Write it out, then bring that list to Jesus in prayer and ask, “Lord, would You reshape my vision of the good life?” Begin slowly reading Matthew 5–7 several times this month, inviting the Holy Spirit to reorient your desires to Jesus’ kingdom.
