Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. 

153 Look at my suffering and rescue me.    I have not forgotten your teachings. 154 Argue my case, and set me free.    Let me live, as you promised. 155 The wicked have no hope of being saved,    because they don’t follow your laws. 156 Lord, you are very kind.    You always do what is right, so let me live. 157 I have many enemies trying to hurt me,    but I have not stopped following your rules. 158 I look at those traitors and hate what I see,    because they refuse to do what you say. 159 See how much I love your instructions!    Lord, I know your love is true, so let me live. 160 Every word you say can be trusted.    Your laws are fair and will last forever. — Psalm 119:153-160 | Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) The Holy Bible, Easy-to-Read Version Copyright © 2006 by Bible League International.

Leadership: To be a leader is never an easy thing. One must always sacrifice their time, energy, and peace of mind for everyone around them. To be a good leader one must have compassion, intelligence, and perseverance. Being a leader is not something that comes easily, nor is it for the faint of heart. Clarke Griffin doesn't take the role of being a leader lightly. Every move she makes, every decision she decides, she takes it to heart. Being a leader and willing to make the sacrifices needed for the safety and betterment of your people are two very different things. One is simply a title while the other is full of action. And Clarke Griffin does both. Over the years we see the growth of her character rise above any definition in which a leader holds.

Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God; but exhort one another daily, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. For we have become partakers of Christ if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to the end, while it is said: “Today, if you will hear His voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
