Recently I got together
with a friend to run an idea by him.
During the conversation he gave me his honest opinion about what I presented...
... and he even told me how he thought I should approach the idea in light of his knowledge of my strengths and weaknesses.
I hope you have friends like this.
If you don't, find some fast.
You need their perspective to do whatever God is calling you to do more effectively.
