Proverbs 13:20
(Message)
Become wise by walking with the wise;
hang out with fools and watch your life fall to pieces.
(NLT)
Walk with the wise and become wise;
associate with fools and get in trouble.
associate with fools and get in trouble.
The people you associate with can either edify you (by lifting you up) or bring you down. Watch who you are spending your time with. Make sure they are not the sources of discouragement and dysfunction. You should be surrounded by people who challenge you to excel. People who will correct you in wrong doing and not support your wrong. Surround yourself with wise people. Associate yourself with people who are positive thinkers. People who are motivated to continue to move forward. People who have a heart to go deeper in God. I know you have heard the saying, You are what you eat. Well, You are sure to be a product of your surroundings.If all you see and hear are negative my friend you will become a negative person. Take inventory. Do you need to find new friends? Do you need to upgrade your associates? If so, don't wait. Get started today. Walk with wise people and you will find yourself becoming wise.
