What does it mean to be meek?

Thomas R. Valletta

Meekness is “gentleness; submission to divine will. A quality that the Lord attributes to himself (Matt. 11:29); a childlike quality (Mosiah 3:19; Matt. 11:29), often coupled with [lowliness of heart] (e.g., Alma 37:33; Moro. 7:43). Meekness characterizes those who have faith in Christ (Moro. 7:39), and is one of the fruits of the Spirit (Alma 13:28; D&C 19:23; Gal. 5:22–23)” (Largey, Book of Mormon Reference Companion, 534).
