Learn Something

I love to learn. As I get older, the learning doesn't come as easy or as quickly but I still love to learn. I am a firm believer in trying to learn something everyday. Learning new things keep us young and interested and involved and focused. Even when I was in school, learning was not the problem - retaining it was, but, learning was fun.

Some folks don't seem to like learning. Everyone has probably heard his/her child say that they couldn't learn or that they didn't want to learn it or that they had learned enough. We have experienced times when our children absolutely refused to learn. When these times arise, it is frustrating and tiring. Unfortunately it seems that you can't make people learn.

Today's word is a quote from Zig Ziglar that reminds of the importance of our attitude towards learning. Mr. Ziglar said, "If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you."

When people are unwilling to try to learn there is absolutely nothing you can do. It it was possible to sleep on the math book and absorb its contents, people would do it. But, you can't force the information into someone's mind who refuses to accept it. The same holds true about the truth of salvation through our SAVIOR JESUS.

On the other hand, if someone is determined to learn something, there is nothing that can stop them from doing what is necessary to learn it. Like so many other things in life, learning is all about attitude - if you don't want it, you won't get it, and if you do want it, no one can stop it. Go out today and learn something.

Be Blessed,
