Did you choose the right people in your life?
Today, co-writer Paul Marc Goulet wrote the message of "A Miracle Every Day". I pray his message and audio will bless you today.

The associations you choose will determine your destinations. Coronavirus has made this point drastically clear. Viruses, illnesses, attitudes and wisdom can be taught and caught.
If there is one principle I can talk about for hours, it’s the importance of choosing the right business partners, mates, teachers, coaches and friends. I believe in the power of association. John Maxwell once said, “Show me your friends, and the books you read, and I’ll show you your destination in five years.” Wow!
friend, can you see the importance of choosing the right people for your life? Have you ever chosen the wrong friendships or business partners? Have you ever caught a virus or the flu from a friend?
The Apostle Paul warns us in 1 Corinthians 15:33: “Do not be misled: ‘Bad company corrupts good character.’” I have to admit that I’ve made so many mistakes in this category, but I’ve also made a few great decisions. How about you?
Whether you’ve been through a painful divorce or a bad partnership, it all really hurts. Picking the wrong employees, employer, school or sports team can cause devastation. friend, have you been hurt in relationships? Was some of the relational pain your fault? Did you fail to make the right choice?
King David once taught Solomon a great lesson: “Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked…” (Psalm 1:1, NIV)
I want to be blessed. I’m sure you do too. Let's take a moment and ask God to help us choose our associations with great discernment:
- Ask Him to help you discern the fruit of a person before you enter into a covenant.
- Ask God to bring the right people into your life.
- And choose people of great character.
