I don't know!!!

Do you know people who know everything? Maybe you've had the pleasure of meeting people who have the answers to all of the questions you have. They seemingly offer up information on topics that you weren't even talking to them about! While i think it's good to employ the help of others who know more than you, a lot can be said about people who are humble in their own eyes, and those who flaunt what it is they "think" they know. SMH. The point i'd like to make today is that nobody knows everything. And when it comes to your life, health,spiritual well being and so forth, it is always good to find trustworthy reliable people who know more than you. Now the challenge here is to find someone who won't judge you because you don't know something, and at the same time be able to admit that you don't know something at the risk of  looking a little silly. You know we all have a certain amount of pride. But sometimes that barrier can give off  a vibe that pushes the help you really need away from you instead of to you. A good example of forgetting your pride and getting help is Coach Mike London(Head football coach at UVA). On his staff he's brought coach's who have all coached longer than himself and who have greater experiences within the coaching field than he does. Can you imagine the intimidation that can go along with that position? I mean you're the head coach and  you make the calls, but to bring people who know more than you is HUGE. But his pride took a back seat to help not only him but the team. I can remember when i first started working out i was in the gym doing some lifting and a guy comes in and tells me real politely that i can do a rep or set better if i did this. Im thinking, "who the heck is this dude?" "Man you don't know me!" LOL! But deep down i knew i didnt know what the heck i was doing! LMBO! I just had a desire to do better. Anyway, i took the guys advice and now im pretty sure i saved myself from hurting myself. Gang, it's alright if you don't know everything. Just be open to people who honestly and genuinely want to help you. God didn't say how the help would come. But He did promise that He would never leave us nor forsake us. Oh and let me add this. Sometimes the help comes from people you don't even like!!! Dang!! Yeah i know!! Even on your job. When you admit that you don't know something that's when i believe God steps in and says,"Now she or he is ready for my help." Be encouraged today! None of us knows everything. Sodas down! Waters up! Peace and Love!
