Before one makes the final decision on whom to entrust with their life as well as who to cut off, they ought to conduct due diligence. Due to the cunning nature of humans, one needs to compare their purpose with that of others and then they can make an informed choice. By choosing someone you can look upto, you are entrusting them with critical things revolving around your life and holding onto the hope that they would never betray you no matter what happens.

It is important to clearly check out on the background of anyone you choose to confide in to avoid getting trapped in a situation where you think someone is set on seeing you succeed only to find them digging the pit on where they are directing you to pass. If this decision is made hastily and without due diligence, someone risks becoming a victim of trust gone sour. One might also lose a life-time opportunity by cutting off real friends who would do anything in their power to assist them in their hour of need. 

My faithful child, you need to be careful with the different people in your life who come offering you different things in life. Amongst the people you consider friends, there are people who are on a mission to destroy you yet they have manipulated you into thinking that they wish you well and you would even vouch for them with your life. The real enemy is not the one who approaches you on the battlefield with a gun but one who hugs you yet the one who holds the knife behind you ready to stab you in the back. I know it may be difficult to identify who amongst your friends are your enemies hence you need to seek my help. Pray to me that I may give you a discerning spirit and eyes to distinguish between evil and righteousness. Understand that I can see through the hearts of men and entrust me to come to your aid so that I can help you make the right decision.
