Follow the Wise
A wise person will accept advice and
counsel - they will grow wiser each day.
The knowledge revealed by God
has important words to say.

Follow the wise among you, for they have
been enlightened by God and know what to do.
Letting them help you will add years to
your life - their words are true.

Only fools take no advice from God and
they will walk around lost and do wrong.
Those people are stupid and everything
they do will not last very long.

It is easy to follow wrong doers, it takes
little effort - soon you become like them.
If you want to be wise - stand up, follow
the righteous and stay away from sin.

Take the knowledge and use it in a practical
manner, so you will fit into God's plan.
Remember, be wise, seek God's help and
you will do what is right and understand.
