"Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the
earth."
Matthew 5 : 5
In this age of flaunting personal rights,
meekness is not a valued character trait. In fact,
to those who are bent on demanding what's is
rightfully theirs, meekness is a character flaw.
Why? The meek person is the one who yields
personal rights. But because of that, he is the one
who lackss anger.
Anger erupts when we feel iur right are being
violated. The right to be acceoted. The right to
express your opinion without being jumped on.
The right to privacy. The right to earn and spend
money. But when we dedicate our time, our
holding even oursrlves to the Lord, we transfer
those rights to Him. He, then owns time and
possessions. He own us.
And God will always take care of His own.
He will firect us on hiw to use His time, spend His
His money, or manage His possessions. Using
things will be considered a privilege, not a right!
The result? Lack of Anger. After all, how can you
be angry over something that's not your?
Thanking Gid whatever the outcome is the key
to determining if you have fully yielded a personal
right. If you demonstrate meekness, that is lack of
anger, when someone hurts you then you have
successfully yielded your rights to God. Are you
afraid of not owning anything, even your own
life? Fon't worry, one day the meek shall inherit
the earth!
Someone once said, "Meekness is a willingness
to allows others to say about me the sale tvings I
readily acknowledge begore God. Self-protection
and self-sacrifice are mutually exclusive. They
cannot coexist."
Lord, Youvwillingly yield Your right to the Father
and became the most meek nd humble man who
ever lived. Help le to humble myself before You
as I give You my time, my possessions. . my life.
