Have you ever seen someone drive for the very first time? It's an absolute mess . . . literally! They try to play it off so cool even though their armpits and hands are soaked with sweat. They get behind the wheel, determined not to puke, and try to remember everything the driving instructor taught them. Then, it happens. They're pressing the gas pedal, and the car isn't going anywhere. Embarrassed, they calmly shift the car into reverse. The vehicle bounces and lunges as the new driver tries to get things under control while trying to avoid the family of ducks trying to cross the road!
Learning what it means to become a Christian takes a lot of humility. Humility means we realize we don't always know what to do, and we will need some instruction along the way. Peter, who used to be an excellent fisherman, struggled a lot with humility. He thought he was always right, and everyone else was always wrong.
God had to walk Peter through the process of unlearning the ways of pride in order to create a new spirit of humility. What is one thing you are unlearning right now?
