1 Peter 5:5 says, 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 are called on to submit to the elder.  This was once more common than it is today, I believe, but it should especially be true of young followers of Christ submitting to older followers of Christ.  There is no room for the self centered attitude of saying no one has the right to tell me anything.  We are to be subject to one another and to do so humbly.  We are told that God resists the proud and gives grace to the humble.  Verse six says, Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:  There is no room for boastful self pride in Christianity.  I don't mean having pride in the things we do, but instead bragging about how great we are.  We should always humbly do our best in everything we do, not so that we will be honored, but so that God will.  Verse seven says, Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.  We are to cast all are cares and concerns on God.  Whatever our burden, we are to bring it to God.  We can do this through prayer, believing that God really will hear and answer.  Sometimes, we pray without real faith, just going through the motions while still not believing that God will answer.  Or course, I believe that everything we pray for should be in accordance with God's will and for His glory.  We can also bring our burdens to the church, our fellow believers.  We are to share one another's burdens.  Verse eight declares, Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:  We are to always be vigilant in our faith in God.  We never reach a point where Satan will stop tempting us, and if we think that we have then we are really setting ourselves up for trouble.  Satan, or the devil, is like a roaring lion, always seeking to destroy anyone that he can.  Verse nine adds, Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.  We are to remain steadfast in our faith.  If we suffer for our faith in Christ, we are not alone.  People all over the world and throughout history have done the same.  We simply must put our faith in God, especially during times of trouble.  We should never ask where God is, because as followers of Christ, the Holy Spirit lives in us.  Verse ten proclaims, But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.  This God of all grace, the only true God, will sustain us through all our sufferings.  Our sufferings, no matter how long they last, will be but for a little while in the prospective of our everlasting life with God.  Verse eleven says, To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.   As followers of Christ, all that we do should be done to honor God.  God has dominion over all His creation forever.  Verse twelve states, By Silvanus, a faithful brother unto you, as I suppose, I have written briefly, exhorting, and testifying that this is the true grace of God wherein ye stand.  Peter tells them that he wrote them to exhort them to stand in the grace of God.  This is what we must do today.  Peter also said he was sending the letter by Silvanus, a faithful brother.  We should always be willing to trust and acknowledge our fellow believers.  Verse thirteen states, The church that is at Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you; and so doth Marcus my son.  Peter said that not only he, but the whole church at Babylon saluted, or sent greetings to those the letter was written to.  He singled out Marcus, or Mark, as being like a son to him.  We are never really alone in our actions for Christ, but work with fellow believers throughout the world.  Verse fourteen adds, Greet ye one another with a kiss of charity. Peace be with you all that are in Christ Jesus. Amen.  This is simply a call for Christians to love and respect one another.  We certainly need this today.
