In this week's Leadership Lessons, we reflect on Matthew 5:5: "Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth."

Meekness is not weakness, it's inner confidence in God that produces humility, security, and true strength. The world tells us to build our own confidence to get ahead; Jesus calls us to lay down self-reliance so He can form unshakable trust in Him.

Pastor Kevin Myers reminds us that when our confidence is rooted in Christ, we don't have to grasp for recognition, push for influence, or cling to resources. We lead from rest, stewarding our gifts in step with the Spirit because the Holy Spirit is drawn to meekness.
