"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3)
or in the NLT
"God blesses those who realise their need for Him, for the kingdom of heaven is given to them"
It is indeed a happy experience to learn more and more the attitude of life to be 'leaning on the everlasting arms' of God our Father. It was and is the work of Satan to make us independent of God (Genesis 3), and continues as the cause of moral and social decay today.
The Master said "I am meek and lowly in heart" (Matthew 11.29)
