Rm13

It is sad to live in a day when few young men want to grow up to be policemen! Why would they? We no longer respect authority AND many in authority are no longer respectable!

Unfortunately most heroes today are NOT even real. My sons have few role models to emulate. Thank God they do have a few. In a day of abusive authority and low expectations on morality and character, there are still a few examples of genuine faith! I want to be that example. I pray we all will be!

One of the hardest things to swallow about this chapter is the fact that we don't get to decide which authority we are to submit to! If we are under authority, we are to submit and respect that authority. "Government is God's servant for your good" vs. 4. Our response to authority reflects our response to God Himself.

Love everyone. Especially those in authority.
