Wear the Ornament of Meekness

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Matthew 5:5 Strive to wear the ornament of meekness. But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. 1Peter 3:4 Meekness is willing to suffer in silence, is patient, and not willing to retaliate for percieved wrongs. To speak evil of no man, to be no brawlers, but gentle, showing all meekness unto all men. Titus 3:2 But I say unto you, .... but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. Matthew 5:39 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Philippians 2:7,8 Meekness is the opposite of pride. Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18 It is thought that pride is the sin from which all others stem. This is why the meek will inherit the earth.
