Greetings,
My grandmother used to teach me, “Be friendly to everyone, but choose your friends carefully.” That was great advice back then—and it still is today.
Proverbs 12:26 (NKJV) – “The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray.”
If you want to change your conduct, you must first change your thinking. For that to happen, you must change your context; and that could mean that you must change your companions.
Wrong companions will not allow you to change the way you think. But until your thinking changes, your conduct will remain the same. If your conduct is not changed, your character will never improve. Wrong friends are sure to lead you astray!
Father God, bring the right people into my life who will help me please You. I don’t want to associate with those who will influence me to do wrong, because I belong to You!
Today, I’m worshiping with Casting Crowns and “The Change in Me.”
We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
Pastor
