Among the people who have learnt the lesson about friends i think am one of them. There are things you may always ignore in your life but needs much attention. They may seem obvious but impactful and powerful, and these are what we call FRIENDS, who do you call a friend?!
A friend is an important person in your life who can either lead you to failure or success. You have to be very careful with this person because if you make a mistake he/she can make your life a living hell.
I was a person who had big number of people i call friends but as i was growing in wisdom of myself and success , i realized that 99% of all friends i had where not what i called them and they conformed me to be a failure always. I remember one of the saddest virus i was infected by them is inferiority complex. I was a person with low esteem and didn't like who i was, my friends always looked down on me. It was really miserable life i lived but i thank God after knowing this i started chopping one by one till today i can say i have a limited number of people i can friends.
Let me tell you something is not the number of people you have that you call friends matters but what matters is the influence they come with in your life. In this world there are only 2 types of friends
i)FRIENDS WITH CONSTRUCTIVE INFLUENCE.
These are type of friends who are one in a million if you get one please don't let him/her go. These types of friends always love to see you at your best peak and success always. They are friendship basis is built in pure loyalty,trust,love and honesty. They are ready to sacrifice their interests just for yours and when they see you losing it will come and tell you openly and put you back on track. These are friends whose greatest fulfillment is to see you owning your destiny and like i said they are one in a million therefore are hard to find since only God possesses and you have to pray to get them. These are friends who will always believe in you,your dreams when everyone else don't. They understand that you are not perfect with a lot of faults but still find you so perfect before their eyes. They are willing to fight for you and let no one talk behind your back.
ii)FRIENDS WITH DESTRUCTIVE INFLUENCE.
These are type of friends who will laugh with you, play but inside their heart they always wish that you never make any step in life. These people sometimes are too hard to notice but only one situation will reveal them,
When you are in hard time is only perfect measure to know this type of people, trust me they are only interested with what they benefit from you and not what happens to you. These people can't allow anyone to get their wings and fly because they feel comfortable when you are both stagnant. Many of us live with these people and we proudly and blindly call them friends . Just measure your life may be for past 3 years and ask yourself have your friends taken you any step further or you are still where you are?..Then if you aren't it's high time you need to evaluate and do some prunning in your life otherwise they will kill your destiny.
One thing i want you to put in your mind is people are people that's why we call them human beings.They change always and have no guarantee but if you want real friend who will be there no matter what start with GOD because he knows you before you were created. He knows where you come from, where you are going,desires,dreams,hopes,faults,disappointments everything about you is written on palm of his hand. He is a person who stands for you when everybody else has run away. For him loyalty and love are his nature is wonderful friend you can count on for anything. Truth is God longs to be friends with you, all you need is welcome him in your heart. If you really want him to be your friend say this simple prayer with me.
Oooh, Lord GOD i come to you,
For the past few years i let bad friends destroy my life,
I expected so much from people than you,
All people i trusted, loved have betrayed me,
But today i know that you are true friend i have,
Forgive my sins and all wrong i did,
Write my name in a book of forgiveness and friends in heaven,
I received you Jesus as my lord, saviour and best friend,
Now i believe you are already in my life,
In Jesus name i pray...amen!!!
Congratulations now you have a best friend in the world, only way to keep him closer and closer is through reading the word of God,pray to him and look up on him everyday.
