Matthew 5:3
blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven
Kingdom
The kingdom belongs to novices. An "expert" in the things of God need not apply. If we want to know Jesus and actually be productive in the kingdom we have to be the hungriest man or woman in the room. Continuing to desire growth keeps us in a place of humility. We have the riches of the kingdom but we can only access them through acknowledging our poverty. That's why are called to ask, seek, and knock (Matthew 7:7)
Worship
Worship is the preoccupation of the people of the kingdom. Our only vocation. To consider him is our destiny. The unpacking of the kingdom happens as we find ourselves in him. In his presence. Tuck away and drink in the presence of God in worship. Rejoice in the glory gifts downloaded through the great rugged cross. Celebrate the love of Jesus that makes you whole.
