But What Do You Think? 2


Many people will not share their thoughts about an issue until they have thought about what someone else thinks about the issue.  They major in thinking about the thoughts of others. They are always looking over their shoulders because they do not feel that it is safe to think for themselves and share.

And, wow, if they think differently than their heroes. . . .

Seeking the wisdom of godly others is good, healthy, and wise. Wisdom is found with many counselors.  However, only thinking after someone else thinks is not.

Did you hear what he said? Yes, and doctor so-and-so said.

Let me check out what she says and I’ll get back to you.

I will only reTweet what he Tweets.

I will only say as much as he says; he’s smarter than me.

Love God with your mind by using it for His glory (Matt 22:37).  You have much to contribute to gospel advancement. Not everyone is an eye or an ear (1 Cor 12:14), but we all have a brain.

Think and share with discernment. It’s a stewardship issue.
