Meekness VS humility

What is the difference between meekness and humility?
  

Top answer

Perhaps the meek shall inherit the Earth, but in most cultures meekness is not considered a virtue. It usually implies a lack of strength. Humility, on the other hand, often comes from an inner confidence based on strength, knowledge, and wisdom.
