who is stubborn?

Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.

– Proverbs 3:7

Have you ever tried to teach someone (or something) that is stubborn, like a child or a new pet?

If we are stubborn, it often means that we think that we know more than really do, and this creates a barrier to learning.

Are you stubborn in your beliefs?

As we become less wise in our own eyes we open ourselves to new knowledge that can change our lives.

This posture requires humility, and the root of humility is in the fear of the LORD.

God is greater than all, and that understanding should cause us to be less dogmatic about our own thoughts and more gracious to the perspectives of others.

Have a blessed day!
