Jesus says that we will always have the poor among us 

Matthew 26:11

New International Version

11 The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me.

He also says, “Blessed are the poor in spirit,

For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”

The poor in spirit are always looking for solutions to their poverty, pain, and lack. The depressed seek healing and comfort, the lonely seek comfort and community. Sometimes without realizing it, we’re seeking Jesus. Those who know Jesus, know they will find the kingdom, because obstacles, trials, and tribulations are the very fertilizer that blooms heaven in our hearts. 

So if you’re feeling down today, ask God what book you should read in the Bible for comfort and finding Jesus, who is the kingdom. Because when you find Him, you find the fullness of joy!
