The Joy Of Awareness
Lin speaks on how we are hardwired for happiness, and the Be Attitudes in Matthew 5 are all about how to be the happiest. Being poor in spirit is a positioning of the heart that recognized the outermost dependency on God; to realize we were never meant to walk alone but to do all things with God. Our identity was never meant to have it all together independently; the core of our identity is in connection to God. The measure we are aware of our need for Him is the measure we become aware of Him.
