Whether we realize it or not, we all have influence. Because of that, we have a choice with how we use it: for the good of others, or not. When we do things like pass judgment, say harsh words, or cause conflict, we’re not using our influence the way it was intended. Instead, we’re dragging others down, putting obstacles in their path for them to stumble on as they try to move forward. That’s certainly not the kind of influence God calls us to have! This week, talk to your small group leader, or trusted adult, about ways you might be causing others to stumble. Ask for their help to make a shift toward using your influence to encourage those people instead.
