The Gate — J Calaway — Make Today Count — Voices
Jun 23, 2025 • J Calaway
Stop taking advice from people who are not living the life you want to live.
Your circle matters! If you’re dreaming of a thriving marriage, don’t lean on advice from someone who’s bitter about relationships. If you’re building a business with integrity, don’t follow the lead of someone cutting corners. (Proverbs 13:20)
Ask yourself: Does this person’s life reflect the values, faith, and outcomes I’m striving for?
This isn’t just about avoiding “bad people”—it’s about recognizing that even well-intentioned advice can derail you if it’s not rooted in God’s truth. (Corinthians 15;33)
How to select the voices:
1. Identify Your Vision:
2. Curate Your Counsel:
3. Filter Advice Through Scripture: (James 1:5)
Listen carefully and Make Today Count!
