“Be friends with those who are wise, and you will become wise. Choose fools to be your friends, and you will have trouble.”
Proverbs 13:20

You can pray three times a day and read your Bible everyday but if you hang around "fools you will have trouble." It says if you want to be wise, you have to be friends with those who are wise. Today may be a good day to analyze your friendships.

Do you feel amazed that you have a few friends that are God-given? Are these friends running after the Lord? Do they hold you accountable to prayer and Bible study? Do they say what you want to hear or do they point you to the Word and say what the Word says? Do they really pray for you if you ask them?
I have been very fortunate to have friends that have a lot of wisdom...very fortunate. These friends were a gift from God. But I am positive that God has a plan and purpose for everyone to have these friendships in our lives. If you long for one good friend like this, not a perfect friend but a wretched sinner just like you that is saved by grace, ask God for this. Pray until He answered your prayer.
