The ONE THING for today

Ask more questions

Going forward, determine to ask more questions and give fewer answers.

Even Jesus, who was the wisest person to ever grace this planet had the habit of answering someone’s question with a question.

Remember, most people are not looking for an answer; most of the time (deep down) they already know the answer; what they are longing for is to be understood.

  • The ONE THING for today: Don’t be Mr/Ms Answer-giver choose to be Mr/Ms Wisdom-seeker. Or put another way, seek to understand, not be understood.

 

2 making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding;

Proverbs 2:2 (NRSV)

These are the random musings of a man whose goal is to make Jesus the paramount pursuit of my life who, while in this effort, is writing down a few lessons I've learned along the way. You'll have to decide if they are worth heeding but at least you may learn a few things not to do.
