Overseer
Push back. I always want to push back against ideas I reject, especially those which come from authority! Seeing situations the way I want to see them kept me in trouble and will get me in trouble to this day. Submitting to my humility and just being makes things a lot easier. Not necessarily easier for me, but easier overall. It is in my bull-headness that I lose sight of Jesus Christ. It is when I feel I am in charge and know something that I actually do not that takes me away from our Lord and Savior.
Remaining humble and allowing situations to unfold, by the will of God and not the will of me, always works out for the best. It is always the path of least resistance as well.
I Peter 2 NKJV

18 Servants, be submissive to your masters with all fear, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the harsh.
19 For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully.
20 For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.
21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us,
22 Who “Who committed no sin,
Nor was deceit found in His mouth”;
23 who, when He was reviled, did not revile in return; when He suffered, He did not threaten, but committed Himself to Him who judges righteously;
24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness— by whose stripes you were healed.
25 For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
