Consider Your Plans Together

My dear son,

Discuss today's plans with someone trustworthy. Even when you have prepared carefully, there may be something you cannot see alone. A good question can sometimes make the way much clearer.

Listening to another opinion does not diminish your work. Explain your intentions honestly, and listen to the concerns the other person raises. Ask your Father for wisdom as you discern which advice to receive.

If you notice something that needs revision, be willing to change it. Finding a better way can matter more than defending your first idea to the end. I hope today includes the care of preparing faithfully and considering things together.

With all my love,
Your Father

Proverbs 15:22

WEB

22Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established.

A short reflection

Proverbs teaches that plans fail without consultation but can succeed through the counsel of many advisers.
