He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
—Proverbs 10:17 (KJV)
God has given each of us a circle of influence, a place where our lives impact others for either good or ill. In much the same way, each of us is also influenced by others, some of whom can help us see and overcome our problems and shortcomings, while others seem to only drag us down into the mire of sin. However, if we reject or snub discipline and correction, we not only harm ourselves but also lead others astray — we drag others down with us into the mire of sin. Our choices don't just determine our destination; they also significantly impact others for good or evil!
Dear God, please forgive my times of foolish arrogance and lazy indifference to your truth, correction, and wisdom. You have humbled me by the realization that you have made my life a significant influence on others. So, please empower me, dear Father, to use that influence to gently and humbly lead others in the way of your life. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
