One
task of a counselor is to help clients gain insight for effective change. One
of my psychology professors described insight simply as enlightenment. You now understand
what was beyond comprehension. Insight is understanding, fused to wisdom, so that
what you believe and the way you behave can be altered.
True, healthy insight is transforming
because as it merges with your heart and soul, it changes how you live. Insight
discovers at every age and stage of life new clues that identify who you are
and what you can do. The pathway to ethical decisions and wiser choices comes from
insight, as facts and truth are discovered about yourself and others.
Jesus
said the true pathway to freedom is knowing the truth, accepting it and then finding
ways of applying this knowledge to everyday life. Jesus promised to send the
Counselor, whose role is to make known to every believer the truths of
everything he taught. Isn't that exciting? Open your heart and mind and receive
this promise.
