Don’t just dwell on your own Understanding
It takes humility to accept the truth that you don’t know everything. It may seem like you’ve been through a lot of journeys in life, and you probably learned so many things, but that doesn’t give you the assurance that you will easily figure out the solutions to your next problems. You never really know what will happen next. You don’t know how this world works not until you ask the Creator Himself. So please don’t rely on your own understanding. Don’t focus on your own knowledge because God will prove to you that there is still so much more that you need to discover. Open your heart and allow…
