LISTEN UP!
Matthew 18:16-17
“ ‘But if he will not hear, take with you one or two more, that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to he church. But if he refuses even to hear the church, let him be to you like a heathen and a tax collector.’ ”
I’ll admit that I am stubborn. I don’t like correction. If one person tells me I am wrong, I often dismiss it as just a difference of opinion. If two or three people tell me I am wrong, I am more apt to take it to heart. If everyone tells me I am wrong, I better pay attention. “Where there is no counsel, the people fall; But in the multitude of counselors there is safety” (Proverbs 11:14). Listen up, John!
TODAY’S PRINCIPLE: Correction from the mouths of many people is worth listening to.

Have a listening day. Love you.
