Helpful knowledge

“… knowledge makes us proud of ourselves, while love makes us helpful to others.”
1 Corinthians 8:1 CEV

“… sometimes our humble hearts can help us more than our proud minds…”
1 Corinthians 8:1-3 MSG

I’ve had two experiences this week where people have stated the “facts”, and shared their “knowledge”, yet the last thing I felt was helped.

I had some strong opinions afterward on how they should have acted, based on my “knowledge” of customer service.

After reading 1 Corinthians 8, I wondered how those interactions would have gone, had I been as humble and loving towards them as I wanted them to be towards me.
