to BE... or NOT... | Part 3

 Matthew 5:5 (NIV) Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.  Who wants to be known as a spineless, shy, frightened, spiritless, weak and weak-kneed wimp? Is that what Jesus was saying to them and to us? Not even close, not even in the same stratosphere. Our problem, just like theirs, is the fact that we have equated meekness with weakness.  Meekness is the most identifiable character trait, whereby we show that we are followers of Jesus!
