Whoever heeds life-giving correction will be at home among the wise. Those who disregard discipline despise themselves, but the one who heeds correction gains understanding. (Proverbs 15:31, 32 NIV)
if I listen to the advice of those who know better, then I am going to be more do among people with an awareness for good life decisions--ones which would most likely keep us protected while simultaneously glorifying god. but whoever ignores good advice will fall and blunder and be frustrated and upset at him or herself as a result of it. faltering and then correcting the error however will result in an acquisition of knowledge and understanding. an improvement.
what does that mean for me? keep your ears peeled for Gods directions. especially any that indicate a need for me to change and correct myself. what is he saying..... one thing might be--just letting go of unnatural mentorships. I think you should ask Matt on that one and see what he thinks.
