'Authority'

How do you exercise your authority?

Madalas, karamihan ginagamit ang kanilang authority para manlinlang, manliit ng tao o mangurakot. Lalo sa mundong ito na nawawalan na ng pagkakapantay sa karapatan ng bawat isa.
Kaya't kung mabibigyan man tayo ng opportunity na magkaroon ng isang authority. Gamitin nawa natin ito sa tama nang may pagmamahal at kababaang loob.

Like Jesus, the greatest authority that anyone of us could ever have but how did He used it? He used it with humility, He used it to cure, He used it to comfort people, He used it to give hope and to serve. Never did He boast about it, never did He told anyone to worship Him because of His authority.

Kaya naman, let us imitate and make Jesus an inspiration always. Because the best model on how to exercise authority is the model of Jesus: Authority used with humility, authority used with compassion and authority used for the greater glory of God. And this is the exercise of authority that we have to follow.
