Perseverance Is Not Enough

Inside a dark ditch, there lived two rats. One day the two mice was looking at a cheese sandwich through a sewer hole. These mice were eager to eat it, but unfortunately the hole was covered by the gutter bars are very strong. Both mice are trying desperately to destroy the metal bars with their teeth were sharp, but their teeth begin to break down because the bars were too hard for their teeth.
Both of these mice to rest because of fatigue. The first rat says to himself, "I will not give up, after this I will destroy it with a strong iron grating strength. do not give up is the beginning of success. "
Mice another second opinion, "I'll lose all my teeth if I continued to bite the bars of it. It is better if I took another road to get the cheese bread. After a brief rest, the rats first began to bite the bars again, while the two mice start looking for another way. Looking at the second retreat mice, rats first began to taunt, "You're too easy to give up and not diligent work. How can you be successful in life? "Rats are both ignoring taunts, he retreated to find another way to where the cheese.
Finally, the two mice managed to obtain the path to where the cheese bread and could eat it. While the first rat, to remain in place because they can not break these iron bars. All rats first gear destroyed.
The story above teaches that perseverance alone is often insufficient to resolve the problems we face. In some cases, the problems we face can only be solved when we try to find another way rather than by remaining diligent in familiar ways we use. Sometimes persistence is not enough, therefore we need wisdom from God, for He will show the right path of what we should do.
