Honor

We've been watching a great video series on Wednesday nights by John Bevere about honor. They're spectacular! I highly suggest you all come out and watch, they're absolutely LOADED with great info.

The video has sparked my interest in how we honor. Without picking on Americans, it has become increasingly popular to disregard or fight authority. I'm not sure where this started, but I know that the Bible says that there is no authority over us that wasn't appointed by God. Yes, that means your parents, teachers, coaches and pastors (hint hint) were put above you by God. While we can't be sure why this is, we can rest in the fact that God knows what He's doing. He doesn't require us to understand His ways, just that we obey them. And in obedience, you set yourself up for a HUGE blessing.

So, be careful how you judge authority. Trust that God knows what He's doing, and ask Him what you can learn from your authorities to become a better person.
