An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
Proverbs 18:15
We do not know, what we do not know.
When I was working for a local government office, one of the more seasoned employees told me that when I was asked a question for which I did not know the answer the correct response was, "I don't know, but I will find out."
This acknowledged that the person seeking information was heard and that their question was valid. And, it served as an opportunity for me to learn something I did not know.
Likewise, we as Christians sometimes meet people who are curious about our faith. We can prepare to talk to people about what we believe by studying the Bible. We can independently study or join a group to learn more. A few minutes a day studying the Bible can greatly increase our knowledge of God's word.
We seek knowledge so we can become wise.
