Everyone Can’t Be On Your Front Row

Life is a theater - invite your
audience carefully. Not everyone is spiritually healthy and mature enough to
have a front row seat in our lives.
There are some people in your life
that need to be loved from a distance.

It’s amazing what you can
accomplish when you let go, or at least minimize your time with draining,
negative, incompatible,
not-going-anywhere
relationships/friendships/fellowships!

Observe the relationships around
you. Pay attention to: Which ones lift and which ones lean? Which ones encourage
and which ones discourage?
Which ones are on a path of growth uphill and
which ones are going downhill?

When you leave certain people, do you feel
better or feel worse?
Which ones always have drama or don’t really
understand, know and appreciate you and the gift that lies within you?
When you seek growth, peace of mind, love and truth, the easier it will
become for you to decide who gets to sit in the FRONT ROW and who should be
moved to the balcony of your life.You cannot change the people around
you…but you can change the people you are around! Ask Jehovah for godly wisdom
and discernment and choose wisely the people who sit in the front row of your
life.

“Just because no one has shown up who can love you on your level,
doesn’t mean you sink to theirs!”
