never stop learning

Clean Slate Living Principle: I have a good friend who is a doctor in the mental health field. He made this comment to me as we collaborated on a counseling situation. “Some people just don’t know what they don’t know!” This was in reference to those who plow forward in life never taking the time to consistently update their thinking/decision making process or simply just review how they do life. When we stop learning and evaluating we actually create black holes of ignorance. Clean slate living requires effort to be informed. If you hit a wall…talk to someone. Get the information you need to advance. This is radically true of our spiritual life. We cannot live off day-week-month or year old experiences with God. Bible study and prayer are not religious duties...they're connections we make with God. Everything about Him is fresh and we NEED to join with Him every day to fully embrace the life Jesus proclaimed was ours to enjoy.
