Relationships shape character

Those with whom we spend the majority of our time shape our character. As an old saying, one bad apple spoils the barrel," is true in relationships as well as in storing fruit. You can tell the character of a man by the friends he keeps. If you want to be a winner, you have to hang around people willing to win.

We must learn the power of right associations and the pitfalls of wrong associations. Right associations are impt because they lift you up and advance you. When you surround yourself with the right kind of people, you enter into God-ordained power and agreement. Two ppl who walk upright with the lord form a threefold cord that is not easily broken.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
Two are better than one,, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion...if two lie down together, they will keep warm. . . Through one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
