In business, people often mistake meekness for weakness. But in God’s economy, meekness is one of the most powerful leadership traits we can have, because it’s power under control. Today, our focus is on Proverbs 22:4 because it’s the 22nd day of the month.

“The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.” — Proverbs 22:4 ESV
