Passaparola & Prayer 091025 Wed

True authority is rooted in obedience. We learn to command well by first knowing how to obey.

Overcome Stubbornness

A perfect crusader means a perfect child, a perfect citizen, a perfect worker, a perfect student, a perfect monk, a perfect member of any society. If your position is that of being a subject, your duty is to obey. If you are in a position of authority, be a perfect parent, a perfect governor, a perfect employer, a perfect teacher, a perfect religious superior and a perfect manager. Remember, you will know how to command well when you are in a position of authority, depending on how well you know how to obey when you are a subject.

✝️ Prayer to Overcome Stubbornness

Lord Jesus, You taught us that true authority begins with obedience. Forgive us when pride makes us resist guidance or reject correction. Thank You for showing us humility in Your own life. Help us to obey with love and lead with responsibility, just as You did. Amen.

A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
