It’s amazing what we can learn when we recognize how little we actually know.  Why are little children so open to learning? It can’t be the stature of the individual. The times I am most open to learning is when I come from a place of curiosity.  There is little basis of comparison and so there is no down side to admitting how little or nothing I know about a given experience.  When I look at how often things that are similar in circumstance do not always end the same way for everyone, why do I think it will turn out the same way it does for me every time?  Perhaps I am only seeing a little piece of the outcome. What it looks like the same on the surface is only a little part of the picture.  Like the iceberg the Titanic crashed into.  On the surface was a little part of it, below the surface was the bulk of it.  God is willing to show me all I am open to seeing. It feels safer to play at the level of surface relying on the little I do know.  God invites me to take her hand and allow him to guide me in seeing the greater elements at play.  He wants me to experience life on all levels. While I may have little confidence in my ability to be present to the experience on multiple levels, God’s confidence in my heart is not as little.
