People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON:
It is usually to meet a need you have expressed
They may seem like a godsend, and they are
They are there for the reason you need them to be
Then without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to and end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, and their work is done.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON :
Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done
They usually give you an unbelieveable amount of joy
Believe it is real, but only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons, things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
Today, thank the person who in one way or another have been a part of your life. Even if a small way you can make them feel that you are indeed thankful for their presence, as well as the beautiful moments they have given- no matter if they are your reason, season, or your lifetime.
