Blessed [inwardly peaceful, spiritually secure, worthy of respect] are the gentle [the kind-hearted, the sweet-spirited, the self-controlled], for they will inherit the earth.
Matthew 5:5 (AMB)
They had great earthly needs.
But out of their scarcity and
their joy for Jesus Christ their
Lord and King, they chose to
sacrificially give anyway. Blessed
[inwardly peaceful, spiritually
secure, worthy of respect] are the
gentle [the kind-hearted, the
sweet-spirited, the self-controlled],
for they will inherit the earth.
