The world thinks if you are meek you are weak. Jesus was meek but He certainly wasn't weak. He spoke out against injustice. Jesus wants us to be like Him, with a gentle spirit in how we deal with others but also strong enough to be able to speak out against wrong. If we think we are humble then in fact we are not. The Bible says He must increase and we must decrease. Its only when we have this relationship with Jesus that we show humility. Thank you all for your comments so far, they are very helpful.
