Meek and strong

Meek and strong
“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.” – Matthew 5: 5
BEING meek is a much maligned condition. Most of the world sees it as being pliant, subservient, even gutless. When He blessed the meek, Jesus deliberately used a word that contradicts the world’s understanding. Humble, considerate mild-mannered people are often mocked and made to feel inferior, but God loves them, so take heart. God sees them as having high emotional intelligence - strength and patience that He can use as an example in spreading a godly view of the world they will eventually inherit.
