Good Advice

One thing I have learned is that not everyone who gives you advice has good advice! It is very important to listen to the counsel, wisdom and advice of those who have good 'understanding' as Proverbs 16:22 calls it. The advice of the understanding person brings blessing while the advice or correction of one who lacks understanding is useless. Unfortunately, I have learned this the hard way, but fortunately now I know better, and now I surround myself with those who I know have godly understanding, wisdom and counsel. If you walk with wise men you yourself will become wise, and in this case I am talking of wise people who are wise through living a life of true godliness. So today if you need advice make sure you get it from the right source. Remember, that wisdom rests in the heart of those who have 'understanding.'
