Today we will discuss what to do when we feel dumb. We feel dumb when we compare ourselves with others. The first thing is that we should be mentally strong when we face challenges in our lives. The word of God gives us comfort and assurance to overcome when we feel dumb.
The wonderful thing that we can learn from the Bible is that God created everyone uniquely. He has given us a purpose to glorify his name. We should not praise our works; rather, we should praise God and honor him for his wonderful works. God loves us all and he has eyes over all.
The Lord says he will give us wisdom if we seek it from him. We are all weak, and we need wisdom from God. When we get it, we can achieve huge success. Instead of worry, we should have faith in God, who will lead us and show us amazing things that we can never imagine.
Another ay, we can be smart and intelligent by reading the scripture. The word of God will make us wise and give us wisdom that no one can get from this world. When we store God’s word in our hearts, we will be wiser than the ancient people. So, let us meditate upon the scripture and be wise and smart before others.
