Christ, at the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, speaks the Beatitudes which are values of life that mark the hearts of believers. Right out of the gate, Jesus flips expectations and says that "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven", so the question is: What and why is this something to be had? The truth is... God is calling us into a new perspective where we recognize our spiritual poverty and, in turn, realize we need him more than ever.
