Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial

✦ MADE SIMPLE

Look, I get how authority works — I have people above me giving me orders, and I have soldiers under me who follow mine. When I tell someone to go somewhere, they go. When I tell them to come here, they show up. When I tell my servant to do something, it gets done.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Real authority doesn't need to explain itself — it just works.
