Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth (Matthew
5:5) well now, on the surface this seems to make little sense. We all know or have
have known “meek” individuals and blessed isn‘t the first thing that
comes to mind. So, once again we face a spiritual conundrum. The statement is
either true or it isn’t, and if it isn’t, what else is false and how in
the world are we supposed to figure it out. In much the same way as
“poor in spirit” is misunderstood, so is the term meek spiritually. Meek, before
God, means simply to be humble and compliant to the path of spiritual
enlightenment, nothing more. When the Rich Young Man (who had great
possessions) sought out the rabbi Jesus, Jesus did not berate or
condemn him. He merely pointed out that he would have to leave his
“possessions” (preconceived ideas and beliefs) behind if he were to
follow the teacher. Upon placing our feet on the path of enlightenment
we have to “cease fighting everything and everyone” and strive to be
“meek as Moses” to be successful.
Simple but not easy, a price has to be paid and that price is the surrendering of self. Now
we have the key: Spiritually to be meek is to be wholly committed to Living on the
Spiritual Basis and through our actions demonstrating the love,
power and guidance of God, blessings in demonstration, our inheritance realized.
