"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." Romans 12:2

thoughts on authority.
I've been wrestling with a few ideas tonight and I'm still not sure where I stand. I'm going to try to explain this with as few details as possible, so hopefully it will still make sense. I have been faced with the question of authority a lot lately. I feel God's call to serve Him in ways that my parents are reluctant (to say the least) to allow. Being 18, am I out from under their authority? I honestly don't think I ever will be, and I'm okay with that, but sometimes I feel like I have to decide who has more authority- my parents or God. Which God obviously does, but how do I disobey my parents to obey God when He says honor your father and mother?
