A goad in Hebrew means literally “the thing that teaches
A goad is a pointed stick, sometimes metal-tipped, used in driving cattle or an animal used in plowing. The stubborn animal that resists the pricks of the goad by kicking against it does not get any relief but only harms itself.
When we stop kicking against sound advice, we get relief, maybe not what we want, but what we need…
Kicking against the Goad
It will never lighten your load
The people who get hurt
End up eating all your dirt
The problem can get solved
Lending relief to all involved
We need to Stop kicking against the goad
Learn the lesson and choose a new road
It’s the hardest thing you can do
But it keeps your casualties few
Everyone learns the same way
Take your punishment, and then
Walk away
