For A reason, A season or A lifetime?
When someone is in your life for a REASON. . . It is usually to
meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a
difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically,
emotionally, or spiritually. 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 an 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, their work is done. The
prayer you sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on.
Then 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 unbelievable amount of
joy. Believe it! 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.
