Amos 3:3 Can two
walk together, except they be agreed? In order for two different people to
walk along the same path, they must be in agreement. What if one decides to
turn left? Unless the other turns left too, they will separate ways. What if
one walks faster? He will get further and further ahead of his wife. I say he
and wife
because that’s what happens to me and my wife – she has short legs and I have
long legs. To walk together, I must agree to slow down or she must agree to
speed up. If one stops to look at something in the store window, the other must
stop too. To walk together, one must give in to the other. It could be either one
or the other. It could be one at one time and the other the next time – but
they must be in agreement in order to walk together. So what does this verse
really mean? Be careful who you hang around with. You must be in agreement to
hang with them. So about your friends. Are they in agreement with you, or are
you in agreement with them? Are they helping you or are they pulling you down? Who
you pick to be your friends is important. For soon, you will be like them. Be
careful.
