Dad's Ramblings -- Wise Counsel

"Where there is no counsel, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety."
 
                              Proverbs 11:14
 
A wise person listens to godly counsel. Listening to differing points of view can help clarify my own thinking. But there is a caveat. I also understands that the majority is not always right. There is no shortage of people who will give advice, but not all advice is equally good. What I need is someone who will help me see things from God's point of view. The fool says in his heart, "My mind is made up; don't confuse me with facts." Lord, help me to listen to godly counsel, even when it goes against what I think.
 
Today's Thought: A wise person listens to different points of view and compares them to God's Word.
 
Have a listening day. Love you.
