Do you ever feel that you are constantly learning? I do!! I equate it to feeling like a child when surrounded by those with wisdom and experience. I’ve been in rehearsals and meetings before wondering why I was even there! What could I possibly have to add when giants, the good kind of giants, surround me? But I think God has a different perspective.
I was reading in Psalms 25 this morning and verse 12 caught my attention. God is always going to be teaching and moving us. When we fear the Lord and seek Him, this verse tells us that He will instruct us in the way chosen for us. To me that puts a different perspective on my insecurities. I might not know what I think I need to know now, but with every learning experience I encounter, I am one step further along the way God has for me. This has been my most recent mindset over the past year and a half or so. I now look forward to being the least knowledgeable in the room because I get to grow! It’s added excitement to my days and a full spirit to share with others.
Don’t worry today when you are faced with a task you’ve never done before. Do not fear if you feel you don’t know how to do the next step or add to a conversation. We get to learn! We get to grow! We get to journey on the path that God has chosen for us and God is good, faithful and true.
