1 Peter 5

http://www.esvbible.org/1+Peter+5/

Peter instructs spiritual leaders. He says that they should watch over their flock as God does. Don't serve because they have to but because they want to. They should do it to serve and not out of greed. They are not to be rulers over the people but examples to them.

Then, to the young Christians, Peter instructs that they should submit to the spiritual leaders. They should serve one another because God favors the humble. Turn over all anxiety to God because the devil is on the prowl, and he's looking for someone weak to devour. Be firm because other believers are going through suffering as well. God is with you as you suffer for a short time, and He has all the power!
