Won't Be Crushed

Life has a way of throwing monkey wrenches into our plans, fallen trees across our paths, moments of ups and downs...the "yo-yo" effect..or  when we seems to be in a rhythm of productivity, wham, the bottom falls out.  We wonder if we can make the count to nine and get up on our feet again.
Luke's version of the Beatitudes (Lk 6:20-26) reminds us that in these moments when we are stripped of all, or mourning and weeping, bearing insults, even hungry, the reverse will happen, there will be food, laughter and success again.  We will not be crushed.  Jesus has walked among us, borne all these "woes" and rose above them, as we will when we put our faith, hope and trust in him.  JUST DO IT!
