Blessed are you…

tatuagem blessed

A modern telling of the B-attitudes.. 140 characters at a time:

Blessed are those who don’t have it all together.

Blessed are those who have run out of strength, ideas, will power, resolve, or energy.

Blessed are those who ache because of how severely out of whack the world is.

Blessed are those stumble, trip, and fall in the same place again and again.

Blessed are those who on a regular basis have a dark day in which despair seems to be a step behind them wherever they go.

Blessed are you, for God is with you, God is on your side, God meets you in that place.

The gospel is the counter-intuitive, joyous, exuberant news that Jesus has brought the unending, limitless, stunning love of God to even us.

    Thanks for wrangling all these tweets together into one place… I’d seen a few of them scattered, but their collective wisdom hit me.

    Appreciate your heart & blog.

  5. I saw these come across twitter and thought they were great. So glad to see them gathered in one place. I think I will post them on my blog so some of my friends will catch them – I’ll give you a mention too.
