1:1 Blessed [is] the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.
LAB comments: The writer begins his psalm extolling the joys of obeying God and refusing to listen to those who discredit or redicule Him. Our friends and associates can have a profound influence on us, often in very subtle ways. If we insist on friendships with those who mock what God considers important, we might sin by becoming indifferent to
God's will. This attitude is same with mocking. Do your friends bulild up your faith, or do they tear it down? True friend should help, not hinder, you to draw closer to God.
My comment: As much as we choose healthy balance food, we must choose our friends carefully! |
