The Meek

I've been memorizing Psalm 37 for the past few months;
reading it daily, and slowly absorbing its goodness.

Verse 11 says that the meek shall inherit the earth and shall delight themselves with the abundance of peace. What a promise!

I turned to my best friend Webster to see what he had to say about meekness.
He says that the meek are patient, mild, not inclined to anger or resentment,
and they are submissive.

So then I looked up meek and meekness in my Strong's concordance.
This is what I found out about meekness.
