Submission
What does submission mean? Google's dictionary defines submission as "the action or fact of accepting or yielding to a superior force or to the will or authority of another person." Submitting means putting others before yourself; it means not always doing what you want to do. It means putting God's desires above your desires. I know it seems like a hard concept but it can be done with obedience and humility. We all have to submit to someone, why not let it be the Almighty God? We as people to submit to our bosses, teachers, and even other people, but when it comes to God, we find ourselves doing what we want. He has our best interest at heart and He will never fail us. I don’t know about you but I have learned only good things can come from submitting to a God like that. Submission a process that begun at salvation and is ongoing with each and every choice that we make to submit ourselves to God. This process will continue until the Lord comes again or He calls us home. So, get use to it. Not only will he have you submit to his authority but those that have rule over you. Yes, you have to listen to other people, especially those that govern your soul. God has an order and we must follow it. If you desire to be all God has made you it starts with submission. If you are having problems with submitting pray and ask God to help you. He is more than willing, but you want to submit, obey and humble yourself because you love Him. It is much simpler that way. Love is our all-purpose garment. It keeps everything together. So, start submitting and watch God move!
