True Friends

I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts (Psalms 119:63).

 

Thought For Today: 

I’m sure you’ve heard the saying, “Birds of a feather flock together.”  If someone asked you who you are keeping company with, who would you say?  Friendship is very important in our walk with the Lord.  We must ensure that those we choose as our companions and friends are, first and foremost, those who fear God and keep His sayings because friendship with the world is enmity with God.  We may have other friends and companions, but godly friends should always be our first choice and our closest friends.  Who do you spend most of your time with?  Who are your cohorts, pals, and friends?  Jesus said, "I have called you friend."  Are you keeping a strong relationship with Him?  Solomon said, "A friend, loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity" (Proverbs 17:17).  If the people you associate yourself with are godly, faithful friends and companions, then when difficult times come, you won't have to worry because they will always be there for you.  Choose your friends wisely.
