Poor in spirit is not referring to physical poverty.
It means acquiring a state of mind where you become helplessly dependent upon the Lord.
It is similar to delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Where the word delight means taking pleasure in the things of the Lord.
Too often we try to work out the solution to our problems in our mind instead of taking the problems to God and leave them at His feet.
Totality is what God requires of us. Total surrender, total dependency, and our total life.
