Bonhoeffer: Day 10

  • No RIGHTS THEY MIGHT CLAIM protect this community of strangers in the world. Nor do they claim any such rights, for they are the meek, who renounce all rights of their own for the sake of Jesus Christ.
  • When they are berated, they are quiet.
  • When violence is done to them, they endure it.
  • When they are cast out, they yield.
  • “Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. ” Matthew 5:5
  • O LORD, you will hear the desire of the meek; you will strengthen their heart, you will incline your ear to do justice for the orphan and the oppressed, so that those from earth may strike terror no more. Psalm 10:17-18
