Know your company

If you walk with 10 broke people you become the 11th one, if you keep the company of 10 millionaires consequently you become the 11th one.

Walk with eagles and soon you'll learn how to fly. walk with hyenas, you'll eventually wait for others to hunt for you.

The company we keep determines who we eventually become.

1 CORINTHIANS 15:33 Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.”


PROVERBS 13:20  Walk with the wise and become wise,

    for a companion of fools suffers harm.


 PROVERBS 22:24-25 Do not make friends with a hot-tempered person, do not associate with one easily angered,

25 or you may learn their ways and get yourself ensnared.

 

PSALMS 1:1 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers.

 _Know your company_

Blessed day ahead

Take care of yourself__"The first wealth is health".

By Strive Masiyiwa  A few weeks ago I went to the doctor. I will tell you what he said about my health at the end, but first read this: Twenty years ago, I arranged to meet a well-known British international businessman who invested a lot in Africa at the time. We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone.
