Summary

True spiritual mourning produces a hatred for our sin and a repentant heart that desires to be in a right relationship with the Lord. We should desire to be holy as God is holy. Mourning is to be our lifestyle. It’s not just a one time moment when we first came to a recognition of our utter spiritual poverty before the Lord - it is a continual part of our lives as believers We want to cultivate hearts that are sensitive to the sin our lives and mourn over them. We want our mourning to be genuine not just an emotional reaction or because we got caught but that there is true confession and repentance and genuine mourning As we continue on in this current series, our text today is Matthew 5:4:"Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Thankful Homemaker Podcast, a podcast to be an encouragement and
0:11.3	blessing to each other and the role God has called us to as women.
0:15.0	I'm so thankful you stop by.

0:33.0	We are continuing on in this series here together
0:37.0	on the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew,
0:39.0	Chapter 5 through 7,
0:41.0	and we're working through the greatest sermon ever preached by the greatest preacher who ever
0:46.9	preached. So we have covered the first three verses in Matthew five up to this point and we are continuing on working
0:56.3	through the Beatitudes or the blessings which we defined last week or last episode I should say as meaning an inner peace or happiness not
1:06.0	produced by circumstances but because you are in a right relationship with God and
1:11.3	from the words of Dr. Martin Lloyd Jones, this is the reason we are working through this larger passage of scripture together.
1:21.2	He said, here is the life to which we are called, and I maintain again that if only
1:26.7	every Christian in the church today, we're living the sermon on the Mount, the great
1:31.7	revival for which we are praying and longing would already
1:35.4	have started. Amazing and astounding things would happen, the world would be shocked, and
1:41.0	men and women would be drawn and attracted to our Lord and
1:44.0	Savior Jesus Christ." End quote there. So this my dear friends in the words of
