Here is another heart problem which makes training, the imparting of wisdom, almost impossible. Wisdom is blocked from getting into the heart of a person, and the blockage comes from within them.
Thanks be to God that he can deal even with such as this, but only through a deep experience that touches the foundation of their confidence and shakes them to the core. It requires an earthquake like this in their lives before they are ready to receive the words of life which they so desperately need. Let us train our children and encourage each other to be good listeners and thinkers so that we can start to make real advance and not be marooned on the small island of our own limited knowledge.
