Encouraging Friends

Right now I am struggling with this and finding friends that I can relate to and will be there for me and keep me accountable. I thought that I had the best friends ever and they are great but aren't what I need with helping me grow in my faith. I find myself settling in a group that I feel comfortable with but really don't belong. With being in high school comes LOTS of drama that swarms you constantly. I want to so badly to flee from those temptations but can't seem to escape. It's something that is extremely hard for me to say no and to let go of those friends that are continually filled with gossip. I fall on my knees asking for guidance and seeking God's Word for what He says. I can't seem to grasp what it is that I am suppose to do and what is the right thing. I know I have been convicted of this and this is something that needs a change in my life. I hope that as my high school days end, I can seek what He wants to do with my life and how He is going to use it to further His Kingdom. I know that with God anything is possible and He has a greater plan for my life. So I encourage you to examine your friendship and to truly think about the people you hangout with. Just because you aren't the partying type and ones that are "good" doesn't mean that you have the best possible friends that are made for you. Take your life and see what is glorifying Christ and what isn't giving Him praise, take it out, flee from it.
