FROM TODAYS DAILY REFLECTION: Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. - Ephesians 5:21 A PRAYER: Gracious God, at times your Word is inspiring, at times comforting, and at times just unsettling. When we stop to think about it, the command to submit to each other could fall among the latter times. What does this really mean, Lord? How is it possible? Wouldn’t it have been much easier if Paul had simply moved on to tell some folks to submit and others to lead? Still, when we say that a part of your Word is disturbing, this doesn’t mean we reject its truth or authority. In fact, when we are stirred up by something in Scripture that we don’t understand, this often becomes an invitation to know you more deeply and to grasp more firmly how you want us to live. May this be such a time as we seek to hear what you’re saying to us through the command “Submit to one another.” Amen.
