Sometimes people come into your life
you know right away that they were meant to be there,
to serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson,
or to help you figure out who you are or who you want to be.
You never know who these people may be
but when you lock eyes with them,
you know at that very moment,
They will affect your life in some profound way.
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a life time,
When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.
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 even at an inconvenient time,
the person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.
Sometimes they change; 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 for you to move on.
Then people come into your life for a REASON
Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn.
They bring you an experience of love, 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 your life,
Put what you have learned to use in all other relationships of your life.
Everything happens for a reason.
Nothing happens by chance or by means of “just happened”.
Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness,
and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul.
Without these small tests, whatever they may be,
life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere.
It would be safe and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless.
Life is an unceasing process of change.
If you did something wrongfully, hurt your loved ones, knowing that we are all sinful,
You have learned what’s valuable to your life and what you should treasure,
If someone hurts you, betrays you, or breaks your heart forgive them,
for they have helped you learn about trust
and the importance of being cautious to when you open your heart.
If someone loves you, express your appreciation,
Try to love them back unconditionally,
not only because they love you, but because in a way,
they are teaching you to love and how to open your heart and eyes to things.
Make every day count, you’ll live in peace.
The Bible says: "To everything there is a season,
and a time to every purpose under the sun.
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant,
and a time to pluck up that which is planted..."
God's grace is as a healing hand.
As does the sweet scent of the poppy linger in the air,
the warm memories and love for those we have lost
will remain always safe in our hearts.
Yes, there must be a reason for someone to come into our life. Cherish them.
