Excerpt from Aspects of Christian Character: A Study of the Beatitudes

In the Beatitudes Jesus answered, once for all, the question that men are still asking to-day, What is the kind of life that is best worth living? If our study of them strengthens the conviction that His ethical ideal is at once the noblest and the most practical ever offered to men, we shall be encouraged to face whatever sacrifice may be involved in a more whole-hearted effort so to live that Christ may approve our lives; while the recognition of our failure to exhibit the Christian character in all the fullness of its strength and beauty will reawaken the sense of dependence, without which the Christian life must remain for ever impossible. We still need St. Augustine's prayer, Give What thou commandest, and command what thou wilt.
