Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Matthew 5:6-9 Father God, give me hunger for your precious Word and thirst for your righteousness, fill me with your blessed Spirit and purify my heart.. Help me be peacemaker in troubled times, loving and merciful, O Lord, walking in the footsteps of my Savior, that I may be worthy of being called your child, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
