If you have someone like that in your life, you are truly blessed! As Christians, we need to be around others who share that same love for Christ as we do. Christ should be the center of everything, not just at youth group or church. Christ should be your entire life. Jesus gave His life, so the least we can do is to make our lives about serving others which in turn serves Him.
We need to be around those who encourage us in our faith. Who pray for us, and acknowledge the Word as God's word and follow it.
In Philippians 4:8, it says: Finally brothers, whatever is true, whatever is pure, lovely or honorable, think on these things.
Surrounding ourselves with people who don't live according to God's word won't help us think of lovely and pure things. Newsflash! This world is full of sin and we need to try our hardest to remember who the real Guy in charge is.
God knows what is best for us. His ways are honorable, true and right. We need to be with people who are trying just as hard to think on the truth of God's word.
Now don't go judging everyone who isn't a believer, nor completely ignore them. Make them a mission. Be a witness to them and show them the love of Christ, after all, that is why we are here!
