Meek Isn’t Weak

By Linda Tancs

Part of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus reminds us that the meek shall inherit the earth (Matthew 5:5). That certainly implies what a powerful virtue meekness is; it’s a key component of a life pleasing to God. It definitely isn’t a sign of weakness. On the contrary, it’s power under control. Resist the temptation to judge meekness as weakness.
