Counsel
The
fourth pillar of wisdom
"Counsel
means to give good advice,
to give wise guidance.
It also means to listen to counsel.
To depend on one’s own judgment,
even in private matters,
is the height of foolishness.
Even the wisest and godliest
have made errors in discerning things.
We must seek counsel instead.
And we can do this
by weighing up a matter
in the presence of God
through prayer and also through
inviting counsel from
other experienced believers."
