I, who am an elder myself, appeal to the church elders among you. I am a witness of Christs sufferings & I will share in the glory that will be revealed. I appeal to you to be shepherds of the flock that God gave you and to take care of it willingly, as God wants you to & not unwillingly. Do your work, not for mere pay but from a real desire to serve. Do not try to rule over those who have been put in your care, but be examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the glorious crown which will never lose its brightness. In the same way you younger men must submit to the older men. And all of you must put on the apron of Humility, to serve one another, for the scripture says; GOD RESISTS THE PROUD, BUT SHOWS FAVOUR TO THE HUMBLE. Humble yourselves, then, under GODs mighty hand, so that he will lift you up in his own good time. Leave all your worries with him, because he cares for you.....1Peter 5:1-7
