Send us Fan MailFoolish Plans21 Foolishness brings joy to those with no sense;     a sensible person stays on the right path.22 Plans go wrong for lack of advice;     many advisers bring success.Verse 21If someone is not wise, then foolish (evil) things attract him. This is like a traveller who chooses the wrong route for a journey. Some people love to do evil things. They gladly choose to do evil things.A wise person does not make this mistake. He is careful to do the right things. He is like a traveller whose path is straight and direct. Evil things do not attract a wise person. A traveller on a straight road does not want to wander onto the wrong path. And a wise person never wants to do anything that is evil.Verse 22Many people do not like to receive advice. Perhaps they are proud and so they do not like to hear other people’s ideas. If you do not obtain advice, then your plans will often fail.We should not make this mistake. If we are wise, then we shall ask many people for advice.Some of the advice that we receive will be bad advice. For this reason, we should have many advisers. We should obtain the best advice.Those who ignore God's wisdom in the Scriptures are being foolish. Understanding how God designed the world helps a person overcome many challenges.Verse 22 explains that acting without thinking and ignoring wise advice leads to failure. But when we seek guidance from many wise people, our plans are more likely to succeed. Problems arise when we avoid getting advice from those who might disagree with us. If we only listen to people who always agree, our plans are likely to fail.Let me ask you: When you face a problem or an important decision, do you seek advice from people who might disagree with you?If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
