When you are choosing who to let in your inner circle as a friend,
Do you ever consider what you and that person bring into each others circle?
Do either of you bring baggage of negativity?
How about drama of situations & relationships?
Do either of you bring gossip, and back biting?
If your answer is yes to any of the above, and you are not the one bringing it,
Are you strong enough to bring them out of the negativity, drama, gossip or whatever it maybe that weighs on a friendship.
Either way, if your relationship with a person does not bring out the best in them, and vice versa, is the relationship any good for either of you?
Maybe on up the road, as you grow stronger in confidence, knowing who you truly are, you will have an opportunity to really impact that persons life in a positive way.
As you seek the Lord through his word, your mind should constantly go through renewing.
With your renewed mind, you have change in your thoughts, which brings about change in your actions.
As you continue this renewing process of your mind and are being transformed in your character, you will want to be a blessing to others, including your friends, not being conformed by theirs or others bad habits, that they may see the change in you and hopefully and prayerfully see hope for their own ability for change, and be better.
So again ask yourself, do you and your friends bring out the best in each other?
