People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime.
When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.

When someone is in your life for a REASON...
It is usually to meet a need you have expressed.
They come to assist you though 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 a reason you need them to be.
then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at any inconvenient time, this
person will say or do something to end the relationship.
Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up & force you to make 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.

When someone come into your life for a SEASON...
It is because your turn has come to share, grow & 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 to put what you have
learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind and friendship is clairvoyant.
