Fool for counsel By: kb © 10.13.14


I was talking to a girlfriend the other day
When she gave me reason to pause
She was going through something
And needed someone to take up the cause
Y’all already know I started talking about prayer

I started talking
But I could tell she’s checked out
Like she was talking to static air

She started talking about what her girlfriend said
How she was told to this and that
I sat and I listened, didn’t say a word
The conversation and instruction: what I’m going to do went on for quite a while
I couldn’t believe what I heard
All of it just made me smile

You much rather listen to and follow
Someone broken, busted, bitter and always in despair
As opposed to humbling yourself, getting on your knees and taking it to God in prayer

Pride and hubris the downfall of man
Imagine just how much God laughs

Every time we make a plan
