Sermon on the Mount: The Meek Brother

After the death of their father, three brothers discuss the dividing of his belongings. To all of them, the most sought after possession was the house he lived in. The youngest of the three was the only son who had actually read the will. Unaware, the other brothers argued and even fought over who was going to own the house. Although he was just as concerned as they were with securing the deed, the younger brother did not feel the need to take part in the dispute. In fact, he was able to stay calm and mild, while treating his brothers with gentleness. He rested in the fact that the house already belonged to him.

Matt. 5:5 ¶ “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
