Many have looked to be rich on earth and the answer has been at hand all along. The bible says that the meek will inherit the earth. That means everything on the earth is mine if I remain meek. If I don't stay meek, then I can open myself up to pain and stress, all because I operated in a non-meek attitude. Non-meekness is being prideful, arrogant, and self-righteous or having an attitude that thinks they can do it all on their own. But when I am meek, I am totally dependent on God and on God alone.
