Life is a theater ~
~ invite your audience carefully.
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?
The
more you seek God and the things of God - the more you seek quality, the more
you seek not just the hand of God but the face of God - the
more you seek things honorable - the more you seek growth, peace of mind,
love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who get
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!
Who Is Sitting In Your Front Row? Tell us about them in the comments section. We'd love to hear all about them.
