A Meek Person Is Gentle And Someone Who Loves Others

Jesus Christ Topical Guide: Sermon On The Mount Series

“Blessed are the meek; for they shall inherit the earth.”

Blessed Are The Meek

The footnotes describe the meek as forgiving, gentle and the humble that have suffered.

I pondered the gentle connection to meekness. When I think of a gentle person I think of a person who has a soft heart and not a hard heart. A gentle person in my mind is someone who has immersed himself in the spirit so much that he has chased out all darkness. I think a gentle person is someone who is very easy to approach because he/she shines brighter than fresh snow. A gentle person genuinely loves people.

I believe relationships are the most important part of this life and are also what makes life rich and meaningful. Perfect love casteth out all fear. I think a person who has singularly focused on God and spiritual things and therefore has overcome all darkness is someone who will attract many great people into his/her life.
