A Few Good Friends

Day 294: “A wise man is strong, yes, a man of knowledge increases strength; for by wise counsel you will wage your own war, and in a multitude of counselors there is safety.” (Proverbs 24:5)

There is safety in the multitude of counselors, that plans can go awry without having other people to hash things out with, that war is waged by wise counsel with others, that learning is increased by listening to wise counsel, and that if you cease to listen to wise counsel – that you will start to stray from being able to acquire more knowledge in God.

As you enter a full surrendered walk with the Lord He will start to take people out of your life when you can't do it for yourself. He knows who you will need to have in your life to accomplish the destiny He placed inside of you before you were formed in your mother's womb.

It's funny when I look back over my life and I see the many folks who have come and gone for various reason's or seasons. This vision will either preach or make a good book.

As I think about it, Jesus had 12 disciple and at the end He really only has three Peter, James and John. His example for us was that you only need a few good friends.
