It’s important to reflect on the quality of our friendships, as we often become like those we surround ourselves with. While we may focus on our children’s friendships, it’s equally crucial to ensure our own relationships set a good example, surrounding ourselves with faithful friends who hold us accountable, love us, and encourage us. Proverbs 27:9 reminds us that sweet friendships can awaken and refresh our souls, welcoming the presence of the Lord. Evaluate your friendships today to see if they are helping you grow stronger and more like Christ.
