There's only two choices on the shelf....
Serving God or serving self.
When it all comes down to it, there really are only two choices: we must either submit ourselves to the authority God has placed over us or we boast of being our own authority. You're probably thinking, "No, Mrs. Kim, obeying my dad has nothing to do with 'serving self'." But, it does! Not only are we to obey our parents (Ephesians 6:1), the Bible also teaches that God places authority in our lives for our hedge and protection and that we are to honor those authorities with sweet humbleness (Titus 3:1). So, if it is God's will that we submit to to the authority of teachers, police, pastors, coaches, and principals, to do otherwise is definitely NOT serving God. And, if it's not serving God, it is serving self.
So, what's your choice, girls? God or self?
