The Beatitudes Mt. 5:1-12
The Beatitudes are a ladder to Heaven.
And Each Beatitude is a rung on the Ladder to Heaven.
But like all ladders you can only take one rung at a time.
Have you ever tried skipping two or three rungs on a ladder?
It is impossible.
One must take one rung at a time beginning with the first one.
So the first rung on the ladder of the Beatitudes is
Blessed are the Poor in Spirit.
After one has taken that step,
Then one can take the next rung to
Blessed are those who Mourn.
And then the next rung
Blessed are those who are Meek.
And on and on.
But each one is a big step and one must make sure that one has
Attained that step and is steady on it before taking the next one.
Or one may slip down and have to start all over again.
God Bless
