I find often in my work that I greatly value interactions with other members of my team. Because they see things I don’t see. I learn from them. I grow by spending time with them.
I also find in my interactions with people that sometimes I inadvertently cause offence. I don’t want to wound people. I don’t want to upset people. And I certainly don’t want to do anything that harms my witness as a Christian.
And so interacting with these other people knocks corners off me, because I realise that I still have much to learn when it comes to emotional intelligence and social interaction.
And the writer of Proverbs knew that as we interact with one another, we will find our weaknesses, we will find our flaws. We will find things that irritate us that other people do.
And most of the time, almost without exception, the thing we should be asking ourselves is, Lord, how should I change now? What are you teaching me? Do you want me to grow? What have I to learn?
