The Blessing of Spiritual Poverty

A cornerstone to living poor in spirit is living with an acknowledgment of our need for God. We must learn to tap into our weakness and lean on Jesus in all things if we want to experience the blessing of God’s grace. The beauty of God’s way is that it will always turn the ways of our world on its head. To be strong you must become weak. To be rich, you must be poor. To find, you must lose. Our Scripture for today comes from Isaiah 57:15, and today's worship is Know (Be Still) by Jeremy Riddle. Check out our Worship for the Weekday playlist on Spotify! ______ Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out? Something needs to change! So, we’re launching the First15 Digital Retreat to help address the challenges we face in connecting with God in this frenetic cultural moment. When we look to Jesus, we see this exciting, life-giving invitation: “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest.” –Matthew 11:28 MSG Through the First15 Digital Retreat, you will make space to come, rest, and recover. Join us and speakers like Craig Denison, Aaron Niequist, Strahan Coleman, Charaia Callabrass, Ashley Abercrombie, and several more, as well like worship by First15 Worship artists like Nikki Moltz and Rachel Denison.
