Today, while conducting a training session on leadership for some teen girls, I found myself talking about experiences at my old job. Relaxed, happy, and enjoying life, how far removed I am today from the stomach-knotting, headache-inducing days in that torturous job.

I suffered much, but learned more, and the things that hurt me the most made me stronger and more aware of myself and others. I was teaching from Titus 3:1, where Paul was giving instructions to be related to their church leaders. " Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men." The word teaches us that obedience and respect are not subject to change, based on our circumstances or environments
