Final Say

     Who has the final say at your home?  Is it the husband, the wife, or the children?  To be honest, no one really likes to be told what to do.  However, Jesus said, "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." 
     Being meek does not mean being a doormat for others, but, in Biblical terms, it means "strength under control."  Maybe it could even mean letting God be your strength and letting your desires be God's desire.  It could mean yielding to the request of others although we may not really want to do that.  Even Jesus was willing to let His Father have the final say when, in the Garden, Jesus said, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me, yet not my will, but yours be done."
     So do we let God have the final say in our deeds, words, and actions.  Do we apply God's final say in our lives?
