The 8 Gospel Beatitudes - For who?

As seen above, the Beatitudes themselves are nine in practice, but the last one (the most intricate by the way), is most often overlooked. The content itself is addressed to all people, especially those abiding in the Catholic faith. It is another powerful signpost for the Christian who wants to live his life well and pursue salvation.

The mention of mercy, justice, peace and modesty is very relevant here, because it touches all social strata and virtually every type of human relationship. The 8 beatitudes are thus another map in the quest to perfect one's earthly life.

When educating the youngest in faith, a priest or a catechist very often refers to words described as eight beatitudes. It is worth analyzing each of them separately, as well as assigning the figure of the saint most strongly associated with a given phenomenon. Properly conveying the essence of this content to the child - in a pictorial way - is often the key to further spiritual development.

What's that is a blessing?

The blessing itself occurs in many contexts, including liturgical ones. In its essence, it means giving thanks for the gifts received. As we can easily see, it often precedes the time in which it is said and deals with future matters. The Eight Beatitudes form a very important foundation for the Catholic. It is worth not only knowing them, but above all, putting them into practice. They are an ideal example of spiritual improvement, a foundation for building resilience to the realities around us, and an ability to correspond with the many situations and problems that come our way. Following this line, these words are not only food for the soul, but also for the mind hungry for the simplest recipes for being a good person.
