WHY MEEKNESS MATTERS TO OUR HAPPINESS…
1. MEEKNESS ISN’T , IT’S UNDER GOD’S CONTROL.
: gentle in spirit, submissive, quiet, tenderhearted.
Romans 8:7–8 (ESV)
7For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot.
8Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
“Meekness isn’t losing control but it’s giving control to the right hands.”
2. MEEKNESS CHOOSES WHEN PRIDE WANTS .
The Meek Choose Restraint For:

3. MEEKNESS TRADES FOR .
James 4:13–15 (ESV)
13Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—
14yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.
15Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”
4. MEEKNESS IS NEEDED TO & LIKE JESUS.
Psalm 149:4 (ESV)

Matthew 5:5 (ESV)
5“Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
