Friends of Folly

Friends of Wisdom


The Bible talks about a friend 
that is closer than a brother.  
But there is a friend 
that is deceptive as the devil...  
As well!

Friends of folly 
lead you to Sheol
where they are headed
because they want you 
with them...  

To suffer 
in torment
amongst the flames.

While friends of wisdom
lift you up 
and lead you along a higher path 
in obedient to the Lord.
Your good shepherd...

But it is really 
up to us 
ultimately
whatever
we will do...

What path will you take?
I wonder...
The narrow path
or the broad one
that is easier by far?

Only one saves your soul...
the other destroys it!
What will you choose?

I wonder...

Not all friends want what's best for you...  Some friends pretend to be your friend because of something they want or to ruin your life...  Because of jealousy or envy or hatred... Can you believe some people do things out of spite?  Someone actually said that to me once...  How sad to live your life that way!
