The Guy with the Sign: “We Want Justice”…S31e42 Mt 5:6
01/05/2026 | 6 min
You've seen our hero, carrying the sign that illustrates our thought for the day: "We Want Justice!" He realizes that things are not quite right.
God agrees with him. Blessed are those who HUNGER and THIRST for righteousness.(Now) They will be satisfied.(Not quite now)
Join me to hear the real source for this desire for Justice. Join me in our quest for justice.
“Self-righteousness” is NO Righteousness at all! S31e41 Mt5:6
30/04/2026 | 5 min
It is particularly helpful to think about righteousness as being in right-standing before God. The problem is that every human has spoiled that standing. So how are we going to restore relationship? Well, we'll need a bit of help.
To do it yourself will not end well because there is no such thing as self-righteousness that is not an offense to God.
“Self-righteousness” is NO Righteousness at all!
Share this with the most righteous person you know.

What do I get out of this? Specifically meekness Mt5:5 s31e40
29/04/2026 | 7 min
An inheritance means resources and riches that were not sourced by you, are made available to you. Though it might be my first day in considering God, it is not God's first day. He has a storehouse ready.
How do I get it? The road to this inheritance leads through the pesky concept of meekness. Short answer: the Lord LOVES meekness. He is biased toward the bowed-down person.
Join me for 7 minutes and then SHARE.

Why seek to be meek? Mt5:5 s31e39
28/04/2026 | 6 min
Meekness takes a bad rap in our world today. No surprise, it is one of God's favorite characteristics. In fact, Jesus Himself describes His own heart as meek.
If we have spiritual meekness aka gentleness, we are Settled, submissive, secure, solid and SATISFIED.
As a bonus, God describes this character quality as PRECIOUS to Him. This is why it might be best to SEEK TO BE MEEK.

Blessed are the Lowly Worms S31e38 Mt5:5
27/04/2026 | 6 min
For all you Richard Scarry fans out there, this one's for you. Blessed are the MEEK. It means BENT. I couldn't help think of Scarry's best character of all time: Lowly Worm.
Blessed are the Lowly Worms out there. Picture his skinny little earthworm shape, green hat with a little feather in it; blue skinny jacket, bowtie and my favorite part: the ONE sneaker.
Open your Bible to Matt 5:5 and draw his little picture there.

Acerca de Be With Me: 7 Minutes of Biblical Wonder

Be With Me is a daily 7 minute chronological walk through the New Testament hosted by Michael Smith. It is for everyone who is curious about what Jesus actually said and did in the gospels. Most episodes will leave you with at least one good thought to chew on for the rest of the day. We start with the Bible and hopefully end with Awe. We are walking through the chronological events of Jesus' life and then thoughtfully considering them. It is meant to spur the devotional life of the Christian and the not-yet-Christian. We occasionally venture into the Old Testament when it helps our understanding of the New Testament events. Everybody has 7 minutes. Everybody needs to wonder. Be With Me is hosted by Michael Smith who has absolutely no special qualifications to do a podcast. He is not a pastor. He has not been to seminary. He does not lead a mega-church. He is not a professional and he has no more credentials than you do. He does, however, follow a great God with an observant eye and a curious heart. Each day, he starts with a study bible and aims for astonishment. ‘be with him’ for 7 minutes as he sets out daily to discover the God who invites us to ‘Be With Me.’
