About This Quote

We must be ready to learn from one another, not claiming that we alone possess all truth and that somehow we have a corner on God. This quote is a great reminder to us all. We all have something to offer in service to others around us. We all have things to learn from one another.

We are all in this together, growing closer every day. I think this quote comes at a time when many people are busy trying to prove that they are right about God when in fact it is the only one who has all the answers.
