Proverbs 11:14
Proverbs 11:14
Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
In life, guidance serves as a beacon, illuminating our path and helping us make choices that align with a higher purpose. The importance of wise counsel cannot be overstated; without it, we risk falling into traps that we may not see coming. Trusted advisors offer not just direction but a collective strength that supports us through life’s decisions. When we gather perspectives from those who are rooted in wisdom and understanding, we build a safety net that guards us from making hasty or misguided choices. Such support is a gift, one that encourages us to seek guidance not out of fear, but out of a desire for a life well-lived and purpose-driven. Each person we turn to in times of uncertainty brings their own experiences and insights, helping to shape our journey and fortify our steps. Seeking counsel is a form of humility, an acknowledgment that we do not have all the answers. This humility opens us to blessings that come through collaboration and shared wisdom. True safety is found not in isolating ourselves, but in leaning on a community that understands the value of integrity, faith, and wise judgment. In this abundance of counsel, we find reassurance, knowing that we do not walk alone, and that our decisions are supported by the collective wisdom of those who seek the best for us. This foundation offers peace and stability, allowing us to move forward confidently in the plans set before us.

The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.

And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.
Isaiah 42:16
And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
