The Bible has a lot to say about how to respond to critics and criticism in a Christ-like way, how our responses to things we can't control will determine the direction of our lives more than what actually happens to us, or about how staying excited about the future is a prerequisite to living a life of fulfillment, and how the people you associate yourself with will determine your success or failure.

As we celebrate the Class of 2023, the quote "Show me your friends and I'll show you your future" is a great start to a conversation about relationships and the influences we allow in our lives. Because your relationships will determine your destiny.
