What Is Poor In Spirit?
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” - Matthew 5:3
The Greek word ptōchoi (πτωχοί) translated as poor describes someone who is beyond being merely poor but is completely destitute and dependent upon others.
The Greek word translated as spirit, pneuma (πνεῦμα) means breath or wind—the animating force of life which is closely related to their mindset, attitude, and the orientation of their heart.
To be poor in spirit is not to be emotionally weak or to have a low self worth. What Matthew is describing is a deep and sincere humility that allows us to be completely open, receptive, and unguarded before God as we understand that we are completely dependent on God.
We can’t receive what God has for us individually or collectively if we are already full of ourselves. Embracing our complete spiritual dependence, embraces our spiritual transformation.
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” - Matthew 5:3
