I've been pretty quiet here. It feels like I'm staring at a new gate, despite being assured that this is a valuable resource. Well. I need prayer for wisdom and maybe a little hand holding or uplifting or perhaps I'll just take what I can get. And I think I'll dispense with the specifics and ask this question. Have you ever been sure in your soul that being the voice of wisdom was the wrong thing to be? When you witness something so personal and devastating happen in the family that you know the right thing and you know the best thing and that's all anyone can see but you can see a "way through" that provides for a best case scenario that includes he wrong outcome and the wise thing is to pray through it with hope for what should happen but all the things that you can see scream "prepare for the worst because it is part of the path to the best? Is this too convoluted to get the gist? I can throw in some gruesome details- but I think the question is present, Do you pastor the wisdom you give or do you just advise to the best someone will receive it.
