They say bad company corrupts good character.... They, whoever they are... are right. Who we hang out with will have a huge part of determining who we become.
Life is full of examples of this... a little rotten fruit, makes the rest go bad... a little mold ruins a loaf, or a house... a little fire spreads... a little hole gets bigger... a small crack grows... and a single bad ingredients ruins the whole entree...
Who we hang with, we will become like... This is why we are told to “imitate Jesus”... the assumption is that if we spend time with him we will become like him as well. But imitating Jesus is a lot easier in a group...
Do the friends you hang with help you grow more like Jesus? Do you help them?
