Happy are The Repentant

What is happiness, and where is it to be found?
Happy are the repentant, for we own the kingdom of heaven!
What makes us repentant people happy?

1. We are not poor (we own the kingdom!), rather we are poor in spirit.
2. We know we have nothing to give for our spiritual debts, nothing to say to our judge, yet we are rich.
3. We know that we need God, or we die, and we have God!
   Individual or group application:
   How is our attitude, our 'spirit'? Rich or poor? Prideful or humble?
   Who is responsible for turning our debts into riches?
   When do we need Jesus in a such a dire way that we die without Him?
