"You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore."
Psalm 16:11
"God comes to our lonely, anxious hearts and whispers our name. God says "I see both the fear you have of closeness and the deep longing you have to belong. I have come to comfort you and to respond to your need. I have been seeking a relationship with you. You belong. You belong to me. You are my child."

HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS

Wanted to share the below taken from the Life Recovery Bible:

The recovery process will only be as successful as the health of our relationships. We may have the best of intentions, but if we are surrounded with unhealthy relationships, we are headed nowhere. The book of Proverbs gives us sound advice for building healthy relationships with friends, family and coworkers. We are called to be consistent and tactful and to use self-discipline. If we hope to build the kind of relationships that will help us love and follow God, high moral standards are essential, for us and for those close to us. (The Life Recovery Bible NLT)

  3. Hi,

    Good post and I total agree. If you surround yourself with negative people it's of course going to affect your life. You surround yourself with loving and moral people you hopefully get the opposite positive influences. Hope your having a good day!
    Hugs
