GOOD COUNSEL, THOUGH UNPLEASANT AT TIMES, PAYS We love those who sympathize with us and avoid those who correct us. But we need a healthy counsel. I discovered the importance of a good advice in a half-Ironman triathlon. After the 1.2 mile swim and the 56-mile bike ride, I didn’t have much energy left for the 13.1 mile run. Neither did the fellow jogging next to me. He said, “This stinks. This is the dumbest decision I’ve ever made.” I said, “Good-bye!” I knew if I listened too long, I’d start agreeing with him. I caught up with a sixty-six-year-old grandmother who said, “You’ll finish this—stay in there!” Proverbs 15:22 says: “Refuse good advice and watch your plans fail; take good counsel and watch them succeed!” -Pastor Max Lucado of Oak Hills Church, Texas
