Life – but not as we know it. God’s people are called to live with values and engage in practices that turn the world upside-down and so the right-way-up. The poor, the hungry, those who weep, who are hated, who give, who love exceptionally, who do not judge and forgive, they will be blessed. And astonishingly, this is what it means for Jesus’ followers to build their lives on a solid foundation; this is what it means to live out a call to follow him.
• Can you imagine how different the world would be if we took Jesus’ words seriously?
• How many people do you know who really live like this?
• What are you currently building your life on?
• In what ways might you need to change in order to build on a more secure foundation?
