“Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.”
Luke 6:21 KJV
Luke records Jesus teaching the multitudes who came to listen, telling them that from that time onwards, the idea of fate or any sense of judgment, when faced with famine, is no longer relevant! They were now blessed with a brand new reference of a far greater reality, where they are abundantly sustained and fully satisfied in lush green pastures! Their reason for weeping, was now transformed into happy laughter and joy! In the new covenant that the Lord Jesus made with us, we are not defined by being abased or in abundance. It might be a different day and a different place, but the secret remains the same; whether we are facing a feast or a fast, a fountain or a famine. In every situation we are strong in the One Who empowers us from within to be who we are. I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me. Glory!
