“Whoever walks with the wise will become wise; whoever walks with fools will suffer harm.” -Proverbs 13:20
Who you associate with can make you or break you. If you continue in this world hanging around the wrong people, “fools” it will do nothing but bring you down, but if you seek out wise counsel, and stay in communication with the right people you will become wise and consequently become more successful.
Let me encourage you to stay away from those that mean you no good. Seek positive, wise, steady people to associate with, it will mean the world to your life.
Be wise.
A proverb a day: Proverbs 1:5 -Seek wisdom and gain reward.

“A wise [man] will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels:” Proverbs 1:5 KJV
A person that is wise will continue to get more wisdom. They understand that there is always something more they can learn. They will seek out “wise counsels” as the scripture teaches, in teachers, books, etc. A truly wise person will not let up until they attain all they can. Now that I think about it, it will take a lifetime of learning and experiences and then we still won’t get it all.
But don’t fret, continue to seek. Continue to press. For even if we are just seeking we are blessed for the scripture teaches in Hebrews 11:6 “he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Do you want to be rewarded? Well keep seeking!
Be wise.
Thanks for stopping by.
