Today @ This is the way...
Hi friends,
We may learn through suffering—but the quicker we learn, the less we suffer unnecessarily.
Clyde and Dee Kilough
Life’s Rebukes
Life does teach us some pretty hard lessons. But we have a problem with recognizing and learning from these lessons—which means that in all likelihood we are heading for even harder lessons of the same variety.
When we master the art of “listening” to the rebukes and lessons of life, we will be considered wise (Proverbs 15:31) because we will not be among those who make the same mistake over and over again.
Wisdom is the active use of correct actions based on sound knowledge. We need to know what is good and sound, and we need to do it. Hearing and doing go hand in hand in reaching success.
Hear that noise? Is life telling you something?
