The Power of Association

The Power of Association

One of the most underrated skills is choosing the right friends. Who you associate with is directly related to the power you live with, or lack thereof.

Get around people who build you up, who encourage you, who go to God on your behalf. It matters. Good friends propel a powerful life. Audit your close relationships and if they’re not building you up, praying for you, challenging you, bringing you closer to Jesus… adjust accordingly.

Pro-tip: be a good friend, and you’ll have good friends. (Proverbs 18:24)
