As we work our way through the beatitudes this week we arrive at Matthew 5:5, “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” But what is meekness and how do we live it out honestly? Consider it in light of the two beatitudes before it: “Blessed are the poor in spirit” and “Blessed are those who mourn.” It will also need to be considered in Christ who was meekest of all.
