S – Without guidance, a people will fall, but with many counselors there is deliverance. 

 Proverbs 11:14 CSB

O – Guidance –taḥbūlôṯ is a nautical term used of steering a ship.

“Proverbs,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

A nation or an individual without the right navigation (strategy, plotting and execution of a course) will fall.  With diverse ideas, there is accomplishment and wisdom.

A – We need people we can trust in our lives to give us good counsel.  Individually, we should have a “personal council” that speaks into the various areas of our lives.  Each member should bring expertise to certain areas:  God, marriage, career, finance and other things important to us.  We should treat our lives with the same gravity businesses do when they set a board of directors.

R – Heavenly Father, the wisdom you give through Your Holy Spirit is the most important for us today.  Continue to reveal the people in our lives who will add value in all other areas that will help us to grow.  We are grateful for the men and women you have put in our lives that cause us to succeed.
