Meekness is not Weakness

This past Wednesday I had a wonderful class at church. Pastor DD did an amazing teaching on honor and what it looks like. She brought up so many things that I had never thought of. Meekness is not Weakness was one things she talked about. Meek is not what one thinks it means, it actually means someone who has strength. It is how you use that strength is important. A woman can be meek and strong all at the same time. She can receive correction with humble heart and be strong because of her willingness to be humble. She can be strong for her children but at the same time be soft about it. She can share her beliefs in a kind and loving way; and not back down. This is not about having power or see who she can control. It is about giving herself to God; letting God be the Father, the husband, and the source of refuge. What a wonderful promise we have in God. I pray daily that I remember his promise and that I reflect his life in mine. Blessings to you and may God's peace be with you.
