Honoring Your Elders
By Mark Flippo
1 Timothy 5:1-2 - Rebuke not an elder, but intreat [him] as a father; [and] the younger men as brethren;
1 Peter 5:5 - Likewise, 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.
The young people can sometimes get impatient with their elders. They get use to talking mouthy all the time. Disrespect has become the way on so many nowadays. Some of us elders just have learned to separate the major important things from those that are lessor. When you sit down to discuss a problem with an elder just remember to show respect and make sure the one your talking to knows how to keep a confidence. Give them a chance to consider the matter prayerfully before they answer. I know you live in a right now society but Godly answers must be given time to bake to the right temperature to serve you with! God knows all, but elders take a little longer to bring Wisdom to your situation!
