Rejoice and leap for joy on that day

“Raising his eyes toward his disciples Jesus said: ‘Blessed are you who are poor, for the Kingdom of God is yours. Blessed are you who are now hungry, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who are now weeping, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude and insult you, and denounce your name as evil on account of the Son of Man. Rejoice and leap for joy on that day!’” (LK 6: 20-23)

“It is good, because…,” says one of our strategies from Program 1. We see the world from our perspective, temporary; God sees the world from His perspective, eternally. Our today’s reasons for “weeping,” tomorrow could change for laughing. When we put our lives into Our Lord’s hands, we can expect from Him only the best.

“Rejoice and leap for joy! Your reward will be great in heaven.” (Gospel Acclamation)
