Those Who Hunger and Thirst for What Is Right

Matthew 5:6
기원후 1세기
ORIGINAL
Μακάριοι οἱ πεινῶντες καὶ διψῶντες τὴν δικαιοσύνην, ὅτι αὐτοὶ χορτασθήσονται
📜 THE VERSE

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for what is right, for they will be satisfied.

❓ TODAY'S QUESTION

What am I truly hungry for — more possessions, or a more honest life?

📝Reflection

Hunger and thirst are the body's most honest signals. This verse asks us to transfer that urgency to what is right. We feel desperate for food and water, yet stay indifferent enough about honesty and fairness. But someone truly hungry and thirsty for what is right will not lie even at a cost to themselves. That thirst is never wasted, for the moment of satisfaction always comes.
