Blessed: Those Who Hunger and Thirst (Matthew 5:6)

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness - those who look to Jesus for the righteousness we do not have and find that He has provided for us by satisfying the requirements of God's law in His life, satisfying the justice of God against sin in His death and resurrection, and satisfying out hunger and thirst for a practical righteousness to match our positional righteousness by sending God the Holy Spirit to indwell us and help us die more and more to sin and live more and more to Christ.
