Interesting about the "poor in spirit" statement. Jesus never had a heart of pride, he never thought he was above anybody. As God, he chose to walk the dusty streets, go hungry, sit in the blazing sun, eat in small homes, get down and really speak to people on a one to one basis. Walked amongst people where they could actually touch him, no body gaurds, no entourage, just declaring the kingdom of God. When He rose from the dead, he took his earthly body with him. holes and all.

Such humility, such sacrifice. such Love!
I understand and I am in total agreement with you Kevin. Jesus left heavens throne and humbled Himself to be a servant of all out of His great love for us.
