As years go by my spirit is at low

My awareness at its peak knowing that I am alone

I can’t seem to figure out any purpose throughout my life

 Until one day a friend came to me with delight

They seem to be at peace, their smile so bright 

He exclaimed with excite but noticed at first sight 

He knew something was off and asked me if I was alright

I told to him about my feelings, he stayed and listened all night

He wanted to help so he wanted me to experience something new

I asked him what does he mean, he says “start praying to God” with a smile on his face

As he leaves I think all day on what he says, and when I got home I start to pray

I put my hands together and bowed my head and told him how I truly felt, and my spirit began to float

I heard his voice, I sense his presence, I felt his love

The power of love came into me. I hear him say a bible verse.
Matthew 5:3. "Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

I ask him what does he mean and what is he trying to say

After that, he never said anything else

So i searched for a meaning wanting to understand

Leaving me confused I lay myself to rest, head pondering about the words God spoke to me.

Before laying to rest I prayed for understanding, then it came, the answer I was searching for

Those who are “poor in spirit” are blessed because they will inherit the Kingdom of Heaven

I broke through another layer of joyfulness.
