So, Luke 6:25; can someone explain?
If someone is happy with their life does that mean that they will be woeful later? For example I am well fed, will hunger later?
I am “rich” in multiple ways…have I already received my comfort?

It worries me. I hope I make sense.

God bless you all. Also, my husband and I just had our baby. Glory to God.

Just my two cents, but I think that He may be speaking of people who only seek their happiness in this world; who have plenty and are satisfied with what this world has to offer, and/or people who live only to have a "good time".

only if that’s the focus of your life, instead of Christ.

Re your new child etc ( quoted from above):

It's talking about the seasons of life. Just like there is summer, there is also winter. During the goods times, get ready for the bad times that will be coming. The seasons seems to play over around 80 years. Once a country hit around 60 years of stability then start watching for winter. At 70 years of stability the wheels start falling off the cart.

I wrote the following article that kind of explains why all this happens. You fix these problems via the Shemitah and Jubilee years.
