Friendships and Relationships

Hey there everyone I hope your day is going well, my voice is still out so its kinda crappy but ohh well its still all good.

Last night was pretty stinking fun, I have never seen a more intense game of Chicken on the roof then I did last night! It was awesome. The Judges were relentless with their comments and it was awesome!

So for those of who couldn't make it last night we broke down a verse in Proverbs about friendship.

Proverbs 12:26 "A righteous man is cautious in his friendships, but the way of the wicked leads him astray"

We talked about being cautious with your friends and making sure you are checking for 3 things

1. Who those friends hang out with. Are they people who have a bad reputation or are they people that are good people who have good reputations. Because if you are hanging out with people who have bad reputations guess who is going to be grouped with them! YOU!
2. What do they talk about all the time. Is it their girlfriend or boyfriend, is how much they are getting away with at home, how much they cheat on homework and tests, what they can get away with at school. What is dominating the conversation when you are talking with them. Be listening for what they are talking about.
3. Do they up lift you or are they always bringing you down. You don't want to be around someone who is always down on themselves and others, because it will absorb you into that negativity, and will eventually becoming who you are.

Don't let your friends have a massive influence over you, Allow God to direct you in your decisions and the choices you are going to make!

Hope you all have a great day today!

P.A.
