The Fool Doesn't Change
In a world that often values stubbornness and sticking to our guns, we’re reminded today of a deeper, wiser path. True wisdom isn’t about digging in our heels—it’s about listening, learning, and being willing to change. From young Eli’s mischievous outhouse-tipping to Jesus’ transformative encounter with a Gentile woman, we see the power of humility and growth in action. As we approach Election Day, this message challenges us to seek not only this wisdom in ourselves but also in our leaders, choosing those who, like Jesus, are open to truth and the courage to change when needed.
Scripture References: Proverbs 26:11
