Have you been doing the challenges each day? Were they hard? Did you feel persecuted? The 8^th beatitude is Blessed are they that suffer persecution for justice’s sake. Were there opportunities to act on a challenge that you ignored? Were you, by your action, able to demonstrate God’s laws and love? Can you remember one instance when you provided justice or brought peace? Are you kinder, edgier, happier, guiltier, more persecuted, more relaxed?

Challenge: Consider the beatitudes and recall your actions this week. Try to keep them in mind daily. Can you do more?
