We continued our video series at Breakfast Club based on the Book of Proverbs, called Smart Stuff. Today we talked about who we tend to hang around, who do we call our friends? Are they typically people who build us up and make us more like Jesus or less like Jesus?
Proverbs 22:24-25
Don't befriend angry people or associate with hot-tempered people, or you will learn to lie them and endanger your soul.
Since our friends influence the way we speak and act, choose wisely.
Your challenge this week is to take a moment and think about your closest friends. Create a list of how these friendships have helped you become a better person and a more dedicated follower of Jesus. Pick some ways you can "return the favor" this week to two or three friends. Look for real-world ideas that can help your friends grow closer to Jesus - or discover what it means to follow Jesus. And if your friendships seem to be pulling you away from Jesus, pray that God would help you develop healthy friendships with other followers of Christ.
In Christ,
Nancy
