Matthew 5:3-10
3 “Blessed are those who don’t believe in God,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are the depressed, the anxious, the confused and the angry, for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the socially awkward, the over-looked, the ignored,
for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who withstand the mockery Christians and still long for God, for they will be renewed.
7 Blessed are the loving,
for they will be shown love.
8 Blessed are the good people of this world, whether straight or gay, american or not, or even republican, for they will see God.
9 Blessed are those who act in this world, who fight to make this life better,
for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed are those, who in spite of their pure heart, have been kicked in the teeth and drug along the ground,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 “And when people mock you, when people spit upon you and your life and your choices and your human nature, when people point out your sin and overlook their own, when people believe that someone like you could never know God, when people say the “Gospel” isn’t for you, rejoice and be bold, because the God of all life, the God of the creation and the God of resurrection, the God of the 1st World and the God of the 3rd World, the God of the Gay and the God of the Straight, the God of every broken-hearted, lost, homeless, confused, weary and peace-depraved person,
is with you.
Always.
