Sometimes we listen to respond. Sometimes we listen only to the voices we expect to have the answers. But what if we simply listened to understand? 🤍
In Job 32:7–9, Elihu admits that he stayed quiet because he was younger. He assumed age and experience automatically meant wisdom. Then he realized something important: wisdom doesn’t always come from the person we expect.
Sometimes God uses the younger person. The quieter person. The person with a completely different perspective. Even the person we might normally overlook.
That’s a reminder I need: I don’t have to agree with every voice I hear, but I can be humble enough to listen.
There may be something God wants me to learn that I’ll miss if I’ve already decided who is worth hearing.
“But it is not only the old who are wise. Not only the aged understand what is right.” — Job 32:9 NLT
