Knowing who belongs in your life

July 29, 2022

“A friend loves at all times, and is born, as is a brother, for adversity.” Pr 17:17 AMPC

Wherever you live and whatever your profession, “butcher, baker, or candlestick maker,” you will have to deal with these three kinds of people: (1) The critic. Let’s face it, most people are comfortable with the status quo. They not only fear change but will often attack it. So if you dare to be different, prepare to sail through some rough seas. The apostle Paul’s critics referred to him as a madman, a fool, and a babbler. So why would you expect the same crowd to treat you any better? (2) The cautious.

These people won’t point an accusing finger, but neither will they extend a helping hand. When you get into trouble, they will distance themselves from you, fearing they may be tainted by your perceived liabilities. Basically, they will wait to see if you make it through the tunnel and come out the other side. Then they will wait to see who else accepts you and if you can be of benefit to them. Then they may reconnect with you. These people are users. They are not bad; they’re just self-serving. So love them, but don’t lean on them. (3) The committed. “A friend loves at all times, and is born, as is a brother, for adversity.”

Even when they hear the worst about you, the committed still believe the best about you. They value you for your strengths and show grace in handling your weaknesses. These people are priceless because they will love you “at all times.” So when God puts such a person into your life, protect and nurture your relationship with them
