Walk with the wise
Countless times in Proverbs we’re invited to walk with the wise. Heed their warnings. Learn from their experiences. As we do, we’re the ones to grow in wisdom and understanding. Jesus is our ultimate advisor and it behooves us to listen to those who love him well and fought battles we’ve yet to slay.
On the search for a mentor, look for blossoms of fruit within the wise around you. Do you witness love? Joy? Peace? Patience? Kindness? Goodness? Self-control? Do they both follow and lead? Do they parent in a way that resonates with how God is calling you to shepherd your own children? Are they in a healthy marriage? Do they have thriving friendships? Do they keep to their word?
Approach them Like any friendship, look for chemistry. Ask to share an hour and enjoy a coffee together. Are they a busy person? Maybe ask to tag along on something their already doing. As you seek to flourish right where you’re at, walk with the wise. It’s not a glamorous endeavor. It’s an ancient one. One that will advance your faith.
