The Beatitudes are not a list of rules but a portrait of Jesus himself and a description of those who follow him. Blessed are the poor in spirit, the meek, the merciful, the peacemakers. These are not the values the world prizes, but they are the values of the Kingdom of God. True happiness — beatitude — comes from living for God and others, not for oneself.
