In a world where outrage and dominance are celebrated, Jesus blesses the meek. Meekness is not weakness but strength under control. The meek inherit the earth not by conquest but by the sure promise of Christ, which reshapes how we relate to God, ourselves, and others.

In a culture marked by outrage and polarization, the Beatitudes call us to meekness and mercy. Meekness admits I do not have everything 100% right, while mercy remembers you do not either. If we embraced these two traits, our nation would be calmer, kinder, and closer to the heart of Christ.
