A righteous man is cautious in friendship, but the way of the wicked leads them astray (Proverbs 12:26, NIV).

And the image others have of you will reflect those with whom you identify. Knowing that, it only makes sense to choose to be identified with Jesus Christ. Even those who don’t follow Him never question His character.
Have you chosen to follow Christ? To let His Spirit give you the desire for Him to be your role model? Do your actions indicate that you identify with Him? Do others see Jesus in you? What’s your identity?
