In Matthew 5:5, Jesus tells us that the meek will inherit the earth. What does it mean to be meek? Meekness is not weakness, but rather a strength under control. It is a humble and gentle spirit that trusts in God’s providence and surrenders control to Him.
When we are meek, we are able to let go of our desire for power and control, and instead place our faith in God’s plan for our lives. We are able to act with humility and grace, knowing that God is in control and will bring about justice and righteousness in His perfect timing.
This promise from Jesus reminds us that true power comes from surrendering to God’s will, and that those who are meek will ultimately be victorious. May we strive to cultivate a spirit of meekness in our lives, trusting in God’s promises and His perfect plan for us.
