Wisdom cries out to us. prov 9. LISTEN! Wise council prov. 11:14, 13:20

Listening is pointless without application. Just do it!
Ransack the word of God. Follow those who are wise. Listen and ask the right questions
“Ransack your Bible every day, and pray for its greatest impact in your life. Don’t just read it — devour it. Dig into it the way a miser searches for gold and silver. Ask God every time you open your Bible, ‘Show me wonderful things here, great things, life-changing things’ (see Psalm 119:18). Savor it the way you savor your favorite food. When you stop reading, meditate on it day and night (Psalm 1:2). Take it with you. You’ll be ‘like a tree planted by streams of water’ (Psalm 1:3). You won’t be like a leaf blown around by the wind.”
