WHO DO YOU CALL A FRIEND?
This may come as a hard truth, but it must be said because many people are being destroyed due to wrong associations. So I ask, who is your friend? "There are friends who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother."(Prov. 18:24,NLT) Before you call someone a friend, you must find out why he/she likes you, and why you are also attracted to him/her. If the friendship is BASED on something material, then the friendship may collapse when that thing is gone. Beware of the ff: People who are quarrelsome- You may spend your lifetime settling issues and dealing with matters arising. People who bring contention among friends and gossip- You would lose focus and frustrate yourself trying to win them to your side. People who are quick tempered- They can infest you too with it and lead you astray. "An offended friend is harder to win back than a fortified city. Arguments separates friends like a gate locked with bars."(V 19) Know who you call friend! AB@TWD
