If the Devil were to write his Beatitudes, they would probably go something like this:
- Blessed are those who are too tired. Too busy, too distracted to spend an hour once a week with their fellow Christians in Church — they are my best workers.
- Blessed are those Christians who wait to be asked and expect to be thanked — I can use them.
- Blessed are the touchy, with a bit of luck they may stop going to church — they are my missionaries.
- Blessed are those who are very religious but get on everyone’s nerves — they are mine forever.
- Blessed are the troublemakers — they shall be called my children.
- Blessed are those who have no time to pray — they are easy prey for me.
- Blessed are the gossips, for they are my secret agents.
- Blessed are those critical of church leadership — for they shall inherit a place with me, in my fate.
- Blessed are the complainers — I’m all ears for them.
- Blessed are you when you read this and think it is about other people and not yourself — I’ve got you!
