Day 5
“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.”
— Matthew 5:6
🥪 Hungry for the Right Things
Have you ever been so hungry you couldn’t wait to eat? Jesus says we should feel that way about righteousness! That means we should really want to do what’s right and love what God loves—just like we want our favorite snack.
When we want God’s ways more than anything else, He promises to fill us up. Not with food, but with joy and peace and His Spirit!
🏠 What About Long Ago?
Long ago, children in the early church gave up little things they wanted to help others—because they wanted to follow Jesus more than anything. Their hearts were full because they were filled with God’s love and truth.
💡 Think About It:
- What do you want more than anything right now?
- How can we want God’s ways more than our own?
🙏 Let’s Pray:
Jesus, help me want what You want. Teach me to love what is good and right. Fill my heart with You every day. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
