Submission is sometimes considered a “dirty word” in our society, but one of two sisters whose story is told in this topic understood its Biblical meaning and implications. 1 Peter 5:5-6 says, “ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time.” Proper submission is an act of love – it is choosing to surrender something for the sake of a greater good.
