BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN - MEDITATION MONDAY

As a "transformed mom", I want to wake up each morning, beginning my day reminding myself of Jesus' words:

• "BLESSED are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
• BLESSED are those who mourn, for they will be comforted."
  
  
  
  I want my children to remember that their mom was focused on Jesus and not on herself AND that I was very willing to mourn over my sin and ask for forgiveness."
  
  Several years ago, our son Caleb penned a poem based on the book of Ephesians.  Today, I'd like to share with you the part of the poem based on Ephesians 1:
  
  
   
  
  
  
   Chapter 1 
  
  
  1A
  "Looong before time began,
  God was indeed our biggest fan,
  He wanted us to carryout
  The love within His master plan
  Jehovah knew what we should be about.
  
  
  1B.
  Before the world was given frame
  God was ready to give us His name
  He foresaw us blameless and pure
  Even before we repented in shame,
  God knew that Jesus would be the cure.
  
  
  1C.
  That’s when Christ came, that’s where we saw
  When we were forgiven and filled with awe
  His blood cleansed us without any glitches.
  His grace and peace lavished on us all                                                                                            
  According to His wonderful and marvelous riches.
  
  
  1D.
  Christ reigns, in heavenly places, on God’s right,
  As we keep walking in the light,
  The Son of God; the one with blessings
  What He promised He has fulfilled:
  The Holy Spirit my heart has sealed.
  
  
  1E.
  Now, I’m blessed with all I need
  Because Jesus Christ did succeed
  I have joy and lots of peace
  Yes on Him, the Word,  I feed
  And in Him I have release."
  
  
  
  
  

  BLESSED!  OH, THE JOY!
