I am Meek and Humble of Heart”

Jesus describes himself as “meek and humble of heart.”

And he reveals God and God’s mysteries to “little ones.”

That is the way of God who is the Creator and Ruler of the universe. 

Such a contrary to the way of our world. 

What’s going on in our society these days challenges us to be radically different if we want to remain “little ones” who have been drawn to the mystery of a God who is meek and humble of heart. 

And let us not be deceived thinking that being meek and humble is weak.  In fact, it takes inner strength, courage, and self-control to be meek and humble. 

Only the power of love, which is the power of God, can give us the strength to be meek and humble.
