One thing I do a
lot: contemplate. I tend to think through stuff a little deeper, question
myself a little more. And I even question my own questions, I mean, if I ask
myself the wrong questions, do I have any hope of getting the right answer?
The Bible describes
such a person as prudent, wise and upright. Check out the following verses.
Proverbs 14:8 (NIV)
- The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of
fools is deception.
Proverbs 14:15
(NIV) - A simple man believes anything, but a prudent man gives thought to his
steps.
Proverbs 21:29
(NIV) - A wicked man puts up a bold front, but an upright man gives thought to
his ways.
Because I think through stuff a little deeper than
usual, I can recognize when other people do so too. One such person is a friend
of mine, Loren. She blogs at http://skyrobin.blogspot.sg, where she journals her ideas, thoughts and musings.
Loren blogs about a wider range of topics than I do (yes, I am a boring old
stooge, I know) and she is definitely no air-headed bimbo. Well-worth a read,
if you want more in your mental diet than just my worship ministry thoughts.
Sometimes when we are struggling with an issue,
reading someone else put it in words helps us get some clarity and insight over
it. Even if we disagree with whatever that person says, thinking through our
disagreement can sometimes bring us the answers we need at that point of time.
So, having interacted with Loren before, I know that
she is a woman who gives thought to her ways. I suggest yourself 15 minutes,
take a quick browse through her writings, and see if she speaks to you with her
thoughts on work, trips down memory lane and musings on life in general.
Once again, her blog is at http://skyrobin.blogspot.sg. See you there!
