The Be-Attitudes, Part 2 | Pastor Derek shared a compelling message on the second Beatitude we looked at - “blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted”. While it is true that there are those who mourn over tragedies in the natural world, we as Christians also experience mourning over the death that is brought by sin! It is that sin which takes us away from our relationship and communion with God..

We must be able to recognize this sin, and repent. Truly genuine and lasting repentance, however, can only be brought through godly sorrow. We must be convicted and contrite; we must confess our sin before God, and then convert away from sin, to that which will bring us closer to Him!
