SELF-EXAMINATION – BE A GOOD FRIEND (Day 2 of 7)
(Need to start at the beginning? Day 1)
I think I’m a bit envious of extroverts (hoo, boy, dump the envy) as they seem to have an easier time of making friends. As an introvert (I need alone time to recharge), I’ve had to work on my people skills. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love many people. I just need them in smaller doses.
The righteous choose their friends carefully, but the way of the wicked leads them astray. Proverbs 12:26 NIV
The nice thing about this scripture is it’s good for extroverts and introverts alike. It’s about choosing good and wise friends. And in a backhanded way, inviting us to be good friends.
How are y’all at being good friends?
My intention is to meet people where they are and love them well. Being a good friend requires that I get to know them well, so I can bless them well.
On the flip side, choosing my friends isn’t about perfection, it’s about finding good-hearted people whose company I enjoy. Integrity is high on my list. They must also like chocolate.
