Last Call Digest: "Don't link up with those who will pollute you."-Joyce Meyer

Don't link up with those who will pollute you.

 
— 
2 Corinthians 6:17 (The Message) 

True friends don't try to control you—they help you be what God wants you to be. Put your faith in God, and ask Him to give you friends who are truly right for you. Perhaps you never thought of using your faith for right friends, but God offers us a new way to live. He invites us to live by faith. There is no part of your life God is not concerned about, and He wants to be involved in everything you want, need, or do. 

I cannot make myself acceptable to all people, and neither can you, but we can believe that God will give us favor with the people He wants us involved with. Sometimes we try to have relationships with people God does not even want us to be associated with.

Some of the people I really worked hard to be friends with in the past, often compromising my own conscience in order to gain their acceptance, were the very ones who rejected me the first time I didn't do exactly as they wanted me to.

I realize now I wanted their friendship for wrong reasons.

I was insecure and wanted to be friends with the "popular" people, thinking my association with important people would make me important. 

We should put our faith in the Lord to help us choose right friends, as well as everything else that concerns us.
