Human-facing meekness means we are gentle and don’t seek to retaliate when we are wronged. We can most relate to this aspect of meekness because it's something we wrestle with every day in a world filled with offenses. Yet meekness is also God-facing: how we respond to God. The Lord is perfect in thought and deed so meekness toward God ought to be easy, right? In theory it sounds easy, in practice conflict with those closest to us often gets in the way. If you've ever felt caught between obedience to God and conflict with a loved one, then this is the message for you.
