To submit...

We struggle with submission. The idea of putting oneself under, or lowering our status for the sake of another. Oh, we struggle with the idea and with the practice that I am not the one in control. The definition is also interesting...

Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live!

How much more, Just some stuff to chew on.
