Cherry Pick

We as followers of Christ need to be aware of those we allow to have influence in our lives. We have control and get to pick those people (friends) who would best for us - we know our weaknesses. Our friends should push us closer to Christ: purpose partners. A friend is different from a brother or an associate. We need to be aware that if we aren’t intentional in positioning the right people in the right places in our lives that we have the chance to be led astray. Jesus picked the people that sat around his table; each all had their weaknesses but Jesus still chose to love and serve them despite that. Are we being the kind friend Jesus was and wants us to be?
