HAVE GOOD FRIENDS

DON’T HAVE IDLE FRIENDS
And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren. Genesis 13:8

You should distance yourself from people that cannot contribute in your life in any way or people who are not going any where or having anything to do in living. Such people will not help you and they are not make any head way in their lives. You have to part way with such people. Abraham parted with Lot, made a head way in life and gave his life a meaning.. Distance yourself from relationships that cannot help you to achieve anything. Don't entertain idle friends in your house either in morning or any time. Lot was becoming successful and prosperous because of the grace of God upon Abraham. Abraham brought up Lot in business and he became successful. Because of the so much success attained by Lot, he and his servants started competing with Abraham and his servants. This resulted into conflicts between Abraham servants and Lot servants. So Abraham called Lot and asked him to choose where he would go with his servants and properties to avoid further conflicts. He made a wrong choice. Seek counsel from your pastor before you take major decision.
