Good Morning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So be careful how you listen; for whoever has [a teachable heart], to him more [understanding] will be given; and whoever does not have [a longing for truth], even what he thinks he has will be taken away from him.  -Luke 8:18<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do we have a teachable spirit? Or do we take the attitude that we have everything figured out? We will never have it all figured out and we should always have a teachable spirit because that leaves the door open to learn and become more like Jesus which should be our goal as a Christian. If we do not have that longing of truth we shut ourselves off of becoming more like Jesus and we become prideful and stubborn and therefore we lose what wisdom we had. A teachable person allows himself\/herself to be humbled when needed. Let us approach life with a teachable attitude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen we approach the spiritual journey with an open and teachable spirit, we will continue to gain fresh insights from the Word of God, the people we meet, and the books we digest.\u201d  -Kenneth D. Boa<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBe willing to listen to others and be teachable. You\u2019re not right about everything\u2026..nobody is.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
