Meekness

Meekness

Meekness is not weakness. Rather, it is power under control. Meekness is a fruit of the Holy Spirit in a Christian’s life that reflects the character of Christ. A meek person will practice self-control and will use their strength to serve others. We are never more like Jesus than when we live a life of meekness. --- Many people desire to live a blessed life. What if God’s idea of the blessed life is totally different from the life you seek? In the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus teaches about kingdom values that lead to happiness. When we choose to live and be shaped according to God’s kingdom values, we can surely experience the blessed life God promised us.
