Episode Synopsis

Read Matthew 5:6-81. As we continue our sermon series of the Beatitudes, what does this quote mean to you? "Let the things most important to God be the most important things to you."

Blessed are the merciful for they will receive mercy. Mercy is what we receive when we do not deserve it. When have you received mercy in your life? How did it make you feel?When have you offered someone else mercy? When have you offered judgment instead of mercy to someone? 4. Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God. Far too often we clutter up our hearts with all the wrong things: anger, an unwillingness to forgive, and our drive for more and more material possessions. If our hearts are cluttered with too many other things, there is no room for God. What do you need to “declutter” in your heart to allow more room for God? Is your heart too cluttered to see what God is doing in the world so you can join Him?
