David Jeremiah Daily Devotional for Today 11th February 2025
Caspar Milquetoast was a cartoon character created in 1924 by the comic strip writer H. T. Webster. The character was named after a bland food called milk toast which was eaten by people with weak stomachs. Caspar was portrayed as timid and ineffectual in his dealings with others. Since then, milquetoast has described a timid, insipid, bland, or feeble person.
Sadly, but understandably, the word meek came to be associated with weakness and timidity. This wasn’t helped by the King James Version’s translation of Numbers 12:3: “Now the man Moses was very meek, above all the men which were upon the face of the earth.” Moses was anything but weak and timid, and all modern translations of that verse use the word “humble” instead of “meek” to describe Moses. Humility is a positive trait of strength, not weakness. Humility means fearing the Lord and accepting His will for one’s life. Thus, Jesus praised the meek in the true sense of the word—those who live in submission to God and are blessed.
Meekness is not weakness; it takes spiritual strength to obey and serve God. And the blessing is to inherit His coming Kingdom on earth and for eternity.
Meekness is the mark of a man who has been mastered by God.
