Mismatched Friends

Mismatched Friends

 




As much as people refuse to believe it, the company we keep does have an impact and influence on our choices.  We can be “unequally yoked” with the people we call “friends”.  Mismatched friendships can be bad company that corrupts good character.  The Bible reveals to us that we are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers, that we are to stay away from people who cause divisions and offenses and to withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly.

 

This is not to say you are better than the next person it’s saying you have the presence of God in your life.  Your journey is spiritual and having the wrong people in your circle of influence can hinder the plans God has for you in your life.  You may be open to growing and maturing, and they resist growth and their tendencies might hold you back when you start a journey that’s different than their own.  So, at some point, you might have to ask yourself what fellowship can light have with darkness?  

 

A final thought, he who makes himself a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Keep your head up, your prayer life strong and remember the best life under the sun is the one you live doing what makes you glow.   It's called I am looooovvvvvve.   დ A touch of love from, Aurora L.

The Power Of Love

As I am just sitting on my sofa looking out the window into the universe I thought to myself.  Love is everything.  It’s everywhere.   Love is the most powerful phenomenon in all of creation. Love is light, it is so amazingly beautiful to observe, something so warming and peaceful to cozy up to, and something so thrilling to share with others. It knows no reason, it has no limit and it never ever dies.   In the words of Frankie Beverly, it’s a happy feeling.  Once it’s in the air and it enters the heart it brings joy so pure it’s inspiring.  L ove is that wonderful thing that keeps the world turning.  It makes you smile, it makes you cry, it makes you beam and it's that magic that completes your every dream. It is so extraordinary it's almost indescribable.  It so stirring others can hear it in the words you speak, see it in your eyes, and even feel it in their own hearts.  Love is the most beautiful thing known to exist.  It's so perfect it causes darkness to fade.
