…a tragedy could be avoided when there is a willingness listen.
Proverbs 18
13 He who answers before listening—
that is his folly and his shame.
A fundamental rule of counseling is that the counselor must become a listener before he is able to help someone. Furthermore, when the problem being discussed involves more than one person the counselor needs to hear from all parties. It is folly to give an answer otherwise and many a tragedy could be avoided when there is a willingness listen. This includes listening to God and in the light of His counsel through the scriptures and by the Spirit all the so call “facts” are brought into the fullness of the light available.
