| What do you really want this future leader to be like? |
Happy are the self-willed for they
shall build their own kingdom.
Happy are those who have no regrets, for they will be praised.
Happy are the self-confident, for they will get what they want.
Happy are those who hunger for self-fulfillment, for they will find it.
Happy are the ruthless, for they won’t let anyone hold them back.
Happy are those who are open, for they will see the value in every god.
Happy are the rebels for they will be called children of change.
Happy are you when everyone loves you, for then you will have freedom in this life.
These are the Beatitudes the world around
us sings the praises of, yet deep down we know that they won’t ultimately keep
you happy or fill your heart with joy.
Jesus’s beatitudes are far different,
yet at the end of the day, they are far better.
Besides, let’s be honest. Do you really
like that self-willed, rebel who only cares about getting what they want and
don’t regret treating others badly?
