“Blessed are those who have realised that getting bigger and better stuff doesn’t lead to happiness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are those who, when they see what’s on Facebook or listen to the lyrics of the latest chart hit, get depressed,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are those who do more than take Selfies and worry about how many subscribers they have,
for they will inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who walk down the high street, find themselves surrounded by materialism and soft porn, and feel empty inside,
for they will be filled.
Blessed are those who use technology to build something good, rather than to just make life more convenient,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are those who aren’t subscribed to Netflix, Amazon Prime or Now TV,
for they will see God.
Blessed are those who don’t get drawn into petty squabbles on Internet forums or YouTube comments,
for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are those who are mocked and ridiculed and labelled intolerant because they believe in something bigger than what can be seen,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
