What Dreams May Come 

19 

It is pleasant to see dreams come true,
     but fools refuse to turn from evil to attain them.

20 

Walk with the wise and become wise;
     associate with fools and get in trouble.

Verse 19

When God gives good things to somebody, then that person is glad. The person is even happier if he has had to wait for these things.

A fool is someone who refuses to respect God. He does not think to ask God for good things, because a fool hates God. The fool refuses to turn from his evil behaviour, because he loves evil things. A fool will not wait for good things. Instead, a fool wants evil things, now.

Verse 20

Choose your friends carefully! A person who is a friend of wise people listens to them. Then, he learns from them, and he himself becomes wiser.

In the same way, a friend of fools can suffer their troubles. If your friends do not love God, then think about this. You need to bring God’s message to your friends. You must refuse to do evil things, if they test you. You should also have wise, Christian friends. They will help you to become a strong Christian.

When you've wanted something for a long time and finally get it, there are two possible outcomes. It might satisfy you and bring joy, or it might leave you feeling empty and frustrated.

Fools experience this emptiness because they often desire things that are evil and go against God's good creation—things that can never truly satisfy. For example, sex outside of marriage may seem appealing, but it never brings lasting fulfillment.

There's a saying, "Be careful what you wish for, because you might get it." Make sure your desires are for wise and good things.

Let me ask you: Has there ever been something you really wanted, but when you got it, you felt a letdown? Looking back, why didn’t it satisfy you?
