Proverbs 19:20 NASB

Listen to counsel and accept discipline, That you may be wise the rest of your days.

Command with a Promise...

Another one of those commands that sounds much easier than is really possible of doing. We are commanded to listen to the counsel of those in our lives that are wise, wise due to years of life, wise due to experiences, wise due to a journey with Christ that is farther ahead than your own. There are many scriptures that encourage us to listen to counsel and accept discipline. In order to do this we must be willing to submit ourselves to others, especially to our Lord. And with what results? Wisdom in our own lives. But we must remember that as soon as we begin to think that we are wise we must start the process of listening to counsel and accepting discipline all the more. This is a process, a journey.
