Learning doesn\u2019t end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Know-it-alls are people who know everything about everything, including the future. They can\u2019t admit they don\u2019t have all the answers.  Pride rears its ugly head when someone can\u2019t utter the words, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut if they love God, they are known by God.\u201d (<\/em>1 Corinthians 8:3 GW<\/em><\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

God knows the know-it-alls in your life and whether they love Him or not.  Sometimes, we\u2019re guilty of thinking we have all the answers.  The truth is, God is the only one who is privy to all the details of life.  We won\u2019t get answers to some questions until we see the pearly gates.  Nowhere in scripture does God say we are to know everything. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becoming comfortable not knowing opens the door for a lifetime of learning.  When I first started following Christ, I was afraid to get into conversations with people about my faith.  The reason, because I don\u2019t have all the answers.  My fear of incorrectly responding kept me from talking about Jesus.  But then I realized, God isn\u2019t asking me to know everything. He just wants me to trust that He does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only God knows<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead of answering, \u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d my response is, \u201cOnly God knows the answer to that question.\u201d  In time, God reveals answers to us, but not all at once.  Searching for meaning gives us purpose in life.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter who in your life acts like a know-it-all, they don\u2019t.\u00a0 Unless they carry the title \u201cCreator of the World,\u201d they do not have all the facts.\u00a0 When you search for meaning in your life, go to the one who knows, God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Become comfortable in the unknown.  Enjoy the lifelong learning journey God has you on today.  Each day, learn something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lord, thank You for having all the answers to this life we lead.  Forgive us for acting like we know more than You do.  Help us become comfortable in the unknown.  Let us change our language from \u201cI don\u2019t know\u201d to \u201cOnly God knows the answer,\u201d in so doing, reminding ourselves of who is truly in control.  Lord, help us live this day to the fullest.  Let us learn what You have for us to learn today.  Never let us stop learning.  IJNIP. Amen<\/p>\n\n\n\n
