Day 267 – Meek is anything but weak

As Chet puts it in today’s BBTL entry, “This can lead to arrogance, hubris, self-centeredness, narcissism, and eventually toward self-sabotage.” If you become strong in your core, but you don’t build your wisdom to become meek then this is the result.

Becoming meek was the single most important thing I learned through Younglife growing up. The world has an overabundance already of self-centeredness. Through Younglife I established in my core that I would always push to work toward becoming more of a servant. Someone willing to serve others is becoming meek. I recall serving others by volunteering my summer away, deliberately spending time at others sporting events, and giving kids a ride places who didn’t have a license yet. I am a servant and working toward giving even more.

Don’t become enamored with taking. Become a servant to the loved ones around you. Your meekness is not weakness. Write an identity statement that you can work toward building meekness.

  1. Love this young Tay. Meekness is mistranslated and misconstrued —- it was used to describe a war stallion who had yielded itself to a higher purpose — power under control. To choose highest and best use. To serve out of strength not weakness. Keep writing Tay…
