Topic: Being Willing To Learn

The more willing we are to be taught by God, the more we learn. It is just like school. In school, the more willing we are to learn the more we learn. If we are rebellious and we do not pay attention in school, we lose out. We learn little or nothing.

If you are determined to learn the truth of life from God, then pain, disappointment, and failure can teach you and give you wisdom. You may be thinking, “If God really wanted to teach me something, He would not have to do it with the whip of adversity, pain, and suffering.”

You are right. However, God does not bring on adversity, pain, and suffering. God does not do anything with a whip. God is not the source of misfortune. God is not the source of what we call bad luck. However, God can help you use what has happened to you to your advantage.

To defeat adversity and learn more, you have to learn to be taught in the times of your adversity. Be willing to let God lead you and teach you. In addition, if you are willing to let God work in your life, you live differently, think differently, even walk and talk differently. When you are truly willing to learn, things even happen differently.
