Ever since I heard that, I took it in and run with it. I've been hindering myself from those people that I know is a bad influence to me. Don't get me wrong, I don't blame them for it. It's not their faults, it's my own fault for letting me get dragged in into the "bad". Not trying to justify myself, but I'm just human, I'm not perfect, I got influenced, I got tempted. It's just a matter of being strong or being weak about it.
Surround yourself with Godly people.
Yes I am stubborn, yes I'm hard headed and yes I'm really strong in what I believe in. But no matter how strong I am, I got dragged every now and then.
Therefore, I decided to let those people that I know would dragged me down go and surround myself w/ Godly people. It's a sacrifice, I've to let go of some friends in order to be stronger, to be a better person and to learn more and more from these Godly friends of mine.
But who am I to complain about these sacrifices I've to make when God sacrificed His only Son for us? Like really? My sacrifices is nothing compare to THAT.
Truth be told tho, of course, I had that..'sigh, this is kinda suck' but then, over time, now I'm like.. 'Oh wow, I'm so relieved that PJ (Pastor's names) said that and I'm glad I let go.' I'm not gonna say 'oh my life has been 100% better' but I will and most definitely can say that God has blessed me w/ these Godly awesome friends that I've now and I'm really glad for them. Life as you know it has been a lot calmer.
Don't get me wrong, those people I let go will always be a little part of me. Through them I learned God must have put them in my life for me to learn about the good, the bad, the choices I've to make, and to learn what kind of person do I want me to be, what kind of person God wants me to be. And I'm thankful for that. After all, life is a big learning experience right? ;)
Same goes w/ these Godly friends God has put in my life. They ARE and WILL always be a BIG part of who I am and who I will be in the future. God blessed them w/ wisdom, patience and love for the little annoying me and God blessed me w/ them as part of my life and I'm grateful.
And that's one of the blessing that's on my list of 'count your blessings'. =)
Xo for now,
