In 2 Samuel 17 of the Holy Bible there was a man that got so hung up on his ideas that he forgot how to listen to someone elses. He went on to feel rejection and eventually separated himself from the job that he had because he no longer felt he could contribute to the cause. We all face these types of situations from our work, our homes and even in the church but rather than getting upset about something we should listen for the wisdom of God to insure that we are not making selfish decisions or acting in our emotions without the Lord taking us forward.
Everything good comes from God and often He challenges us in our objectives through other individuals with better ideas to help us go the extra mile in thinking further than we did before. If we are not challenged to improve within our own self then how boring could our life become? God wants us to be the best we can be and to learn to listen for the wisdom that He provides. It is when we take our focus away from God that we tend to get stuck on man and then we miss out in God’s beautiful plan…amen
