When someone has nothing to prove to us and doesn’t need our approval to validate them, our souls rest a little easier, and we really can see the world a little more clearly for what it is...Maybe that’s meekness. People didn’t find their burdens lightened in the presence of Jesus because he was insecure and told everybody only what they wanted to hear. The meekness of Jesus was, and this is Rowan Williams again, “a habit of calm attentiveness, stillness, freedom from the fretting worry of keeping control.”
