“But the weak will inherit the land; they will enjoy
a surplus of peace.” Psalm 37:11
Most of life is taken up with gaining recognition or
acceptance. People who we call high-achievers may try to accomplish this by
force of will or fighting their way to the top. Others who are quieter by
nature still look for opportunities to be recognized. They may not start wars,
but will still measure success by the square foot, the dollar sign or name
recognition. Though we may call these people “meek”, I do not believe their
retiring nature is the same quality God admires.
