Personal experience both good and bad can teach us valuable lessons. But is it really true that experience is the best teacher? Some said yes and others said it depends. The truth is no, why? Because there is a superior source of guidance none other than our divine creator.
Why is learning from divine instructor far better than learning from personal experience? For one thing, learning only from experience involves trial and error and this can be both costly and painful. “O if only you would actually pay attention to my commandments then your peace would become just like a river, and your righteousness like the waves of the sea.” God said to the ancient Israelites. (Isaiah 48:18)
One reason why God’s word excels as a source of instruction is that, it contains the oldest and most accurate account of human experience. You really realize that painlessly learning from the successes and failures of others is preferable to repeating their mistakes. More important, in the Bible, God provides us with superb laws and guiding principles that are unequaled in reliability. Remember that the law of Jehovah God is perfect and trustworthy, making the inexperience one wise. Surely, learning from the wisdom of our loving creator is the best possible way. Try and you won’t regret anything at the end.
