Peer Pressure

John 12:42-43 Many people did believe in him, however, including some of the Jewish leaders. But they wouldn’t admit it for fear that the Pharisees would expel them from the synagogue. For they loved human praise more than the praise of God.

It takes wisdom and patience to survive in a world that doesn't acknowledge God or is concerned with the recovery process. We need to resist the pressures around us. We must not compromise our new found integrity when our friends and associates mock us or tempt us to return to our old ways.

Obedience to the God of all truth needs to become our daily priority as we face everyday pressures.
