The Angel told the Wise Men to "listen" first, not to "look" first. This is an important lesson for us too, many of life's pitfalls can be avoided if we listened first and not tried to look first. There are quite a number of sources that we should listen to, including God, those people closest to us, and experts etc, before we make any judgement about important decisions or new things.
