Pastor Kerry Shook Daily Devotional - April 9

Summary

This devotional explores the Beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount, emphasizing that true happiness comes from a place opposite to worldly pursuits. Focusing on Matthew 5:6, it highlights that blessedness is found in hungering and thirsting for righteousness, which means being right with God through honesty about our sins and reliance on His grace, ultimately leading us to live from our true, renewed self. The practical takeaway is to be truthful with ourselves, God, and others, and to earnestly desire righteousness to live authentically as God's child.
