Matthew 5:5 “Blessed [inwardly peaceful, spiritually secure, worthy of respect] are the gentle [the kind-hearted, the sweet-spirited, the self-controlled], for they will inherit the earth. “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. God blesses those who are humble, for they will inherit the whole earth. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. “You’re blessed when you’re content with just who you are—no more, no less. That’s the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can’t be bought. “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth. They are blessed who are humble, for the whole earth will be theirs. Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. “What blessing comes to you when gentleness lives in you! For you will inherit the earth.
