Teach and learn

Psalm 119:12 “Praise be to you, Lord; teach me your decrees.” Have you, in your prayers, ever said to God–don’t bother teaching me because I know everything!  Only a fool would even think such a thought.  Our prayer is rather–teach me because I know almost nothing!  All of us humbly ask God to teach us as we humbly listen, learn and apply.  Studying His Word is just what we as His faithful children do.
