Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:and ye shall find rest unto your souls. Matthew 11:28
Regardless of how society may define meekness
Meekness is not weakness!
The meek person is not self-willed – not continually concerned with self, his own ways, ideas, and wishes. He is willing to put himself in second place and submit himself to achieve what is good for others. Meekness is the opposite of self-will, self-interest, and self-assertiveness.
Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend;but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.
Proverbs 12:19 The lip of truth shall be established for ever:
but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Let today be the day you give up who you’ve been for who you can become.
2 Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord
“In this scripture the Greek for ‘changed’ is ‘metamorphosis’ which literally means a change in form and a change in character. A fine example would be the unexplainable metamorphosis of a beautiful butterfly emerging from the dying shell of a caterpillar. Likewise it is in our secret time with God that we will emerge from our dying self-life to a brand new creation, a metamorphosis by the power of God.”

Psalm 122:1 I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord
Look what I saw while visiting San Antonio Texas yesterday? Pumpkins really do turn into Cinderella carriages and believe or not there are “Happily ever after stories”.
If the mind of a fantasy pen can script a romantic coach out of a pumpkin then surely the Hand of the Master Potter, who is love and the creator of love, can mold a “Happily Ever After Story” out of broken lives.
