III. Poverty of Heart
2547
The Lord grieves over the rich, because they find their consolation in the
abundance of goods.340 “Let the proud seek and love earthly
kingdoms, but blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the Kingdom of
heaven.”341 Abandonment to the providence of the Father in heaven
frees us from anxiety about tomorrow.342 Trust in God is a preparation
for the blessedness of the poor. They shall see God.
