—Proverbs 1:8-19
by: Richard Crouch.
How many times has a “friend” talked you into doing something you knew was wrong? You tried to resist. You tried to say, “No!” But your “friend” kept badgering you until you said, “Well, okay. I guess it wouldn’t hurt just this one time.”
Peer pressure is one of the most powerful forces we face as Christians. That’s why it is so important to surround ourselves with fellow Christians. We are not strong enough to resist every temptation. We can’t hang out with the devil and expect to win. We need true friends that want what’s best for us.
