Yes Joseph, this is the way! I am also reminded of Proverbs 1:7: "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,

but fools despise wisdom and instruction." ๐Ÿ™

Amen ๐Ÿ™ Lots of references in Proverbs contrasting the fool and the wise. Another good one is Proverbs 12:1, โ€œWhoever loves instruction loves knowledge,

But he who hates correction is stupid.โ€

Correction never feels good in the moment but we all need it from time to time.

How we handle that correction makes the difference between wisdom and foolishness, growth and stagnation.

Sidebar, but probably my favourite collection of poetry ever.
