As humans, we always want our own way. This is evident in a toddler who wants to do things herself and when she wants to do it. Our will to have our way is developed at a young age and continues to strengthen as we grow older. The verse today is telling us to put others first, not demanding our way. It takes a stronger will to do this than to have our own way. We have to work daily at putting others first, listening to their needs, how they want the job done. When we truly work at respecting others and letting them lead, we are honoring Christ as He desires. Take a look at how strong your will is today, are you having it your way or putting others first?
Ephesians 5:21 NIV
21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.
