Here is a bible lesson for tonight

Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.

Rephaseing this
Happy are the Meek for they are going to inherit the earth. Lets define the word Meek. It is to be gentle and kind. Meekness is a peaceful kind of thing. If I am meek I am going to be gentle to people and to the animals the Lord made. It mean not squirting the cat at my aunts home but to be gentle with them. I had a cat as a kid and her name was mittens, She loved to sleep on my bed all the time (even after the abuse she got with me.) We ought to treat the Lords world with respect. It does not mean we can eat the things in it either.

Meek is also to be humble in the Lord. It is to know we are nothing under the power of God. We ought to be humble and lay low at time in our admiring and worship of the Lord. It is being child like in our awe of the Lord Jesus. Like think of the first time when Jesus touched your heart. It for me was in the days after I asked Jesus into my heart he was there and I felt new and blessed. Of I want to live in the renewing flow of Jesus.

If your meek you will inherit the earth. One day Jesus is going to restore to the meek the earth and in that day it goes to the meek. We are going to live here and be in a earth with no sin. One day the earth will be in the righteous hands of the Lord.

I need to be gentle in my witness. I am kind of brash and that drives sinners away. If I am gentle then I am going to win more people to Jesus and people are going to see the Lord in my life and my heart. I do not want to drive them to away but I want to be a gentle man and one that leads others to Jesus
