Growing up I had an undiagnosed learning disability. I was always the slow kid in school. If I had a daily saying it was this.
“Don’t fall behind. Catch up. Hurry up.”
I covered my slowness and confusion by being the funny guy. And, I always enjoyed studying people, emotions, and relationships. As, I got older I heard you could ask God for wisdom. So, I prayed daily for wisdom. (Maybe, I could be a wise, slow person.)
I kept learning about people. I’ve seen some very peaceful men and other men in hellacious torment. I’ve experienced free men and men bound up in addictions. Finally, I’ve seen poorly equipped husbands and desperate, lonely wives.
As life progressed, I learned my favorite topic: marriage. It serves two main purposes. It’s a special place where God does miraculous things. And, it’s an emotional training program. Because in marriage, you quickly learn your strengths and weaknesses.
Thanks for reading our posts. (It shows that even slow kids can become wise.)
