Being under leadership

Don't have a verse though there are many for this topic. But recently I joined the leadership training program at my church. The thing is I didn't want to because I felt like, all my learning would be associated with it and not wisdom I had before, but that is just pride. I also know that in order to be a leader you must be under leadership. You must submit to those who are in authority over you. Doesn't matter if you think or you are more spiritual, they still know the Lord and His Word in application than a younger believer can know because you can't bypass time. Many young folk, get into doctrine, get puffed up, become lone-wolf-I'm-the-last-prophet-Elijahs, just to have a bunch of rough years of confusion. Submit. Anyways something that is humbling me and is making me into the man of God that God wants me to be.


Now I have a verse lol,:

Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." (1 Peter 5:5)
