Stay Stupid

We should not call others stupid, but stupid does overtake everyone at certain moments. The secret is -- keep it a secret as best you can! A customer called her telephone company and asked, "how do I print my voicemail?" It's been wisely said, "better to keep your mouth closed and thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt."

 

Can you believe, of all people in history, Solomon felt stupid! "Surely I am more brutish [stupid] than any man, and have not the understanding of a man. I neither learned wisdom, nor have the knowledge of the holy." (Proverbs 30:2-3).  Interestingly, his feeling of inadequate wisdom only fueled him to seek God more. Solomon struggled to avoid vanity and pride, which hinders knowing God more. What a model for the wise!  Now, let’s not promote stupidity as the world defines it, but staying humble and teachable unto God is a good thing. As ridiculous as it may sound, spiritually-speaking … stay stupid!
