Proverbs - It is Wise to Have Friends


Proverbs 27:17

Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

Friendships are healthy.  The body of Christ is made up of many members.  One part supplies what the next part needs.  To sharpen a knife or a pair of scissors, another piece of metal is rubbed against it bringing back to its optimum performance and removing the natural dulling time brings.  Ladies, we will dull if we isolate ourselves and just have our husbands and children as influences.  We need to be around other sisters and trust that they will sharpen us and we will sharpen them.  When was the last time you spent some time on the phone or went out to lunch with another sister?  If you are a woman who tends to isolate, you meddle or interfere with wisdom.  Get close to some great gals and watch some of your dullness fade away!
