We Can Be - is the blog of Dave Andrews, Sammy Jockel, Ben Thurley and Ralph & Andrew.
And their philosophy is:
We can see the workable virtues advocated in the values that are blessed in the Be-Attitudes
1. Blessed are the poor - or poor in spirit – who do not trust in status or riches
2. Blessed are those who mourn – who grieve over the injustice in the world
3. Blessed are the meek – who get angry but who never get aggressive
4. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness - who seek justice
5. Blessed are the merciful – who are compassionate to everyone in need
6. Blessed are the pure in heart – who are whole-hearted in desire to do right
7. Blessed are the peacemakers – who work for peace in a world at war
8. Blessed are those persecuted for righteousness - who suffer for just causes
As further blogs are added to the listings, I will hopefully review them individually.
