Proverbs 13:20 Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.
The more we hang around with wise people, the more we tend to learn from them – I used to love hanging round people who were able to do practical things, and I have learned a lot from that.
Jesus wants us to hang around people who know the truth and are willing to share that truth – so more people can be honest and open!
The more we try to do things the wrong way, the more likely we are to fall flat on our faces and have to endure the pain!
