PEOPLE COME INTO YOUR LIFE FOR A REASON.

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that person. 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. Some 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. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant. Thank you for being a part of my life, whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Lovely to read! I had a Christian friend come into my life at the beginning of the year when I truly needed it, after she'd been away in another city, and she has only just left. She brought much joy and laughter to me with her warmth, gift of hospitality, sense of humour, encouragement, acceptance, and friendship - at a time when I was at a crossroads. From the middle of last year my coping capacity diminished and I couldn't function properly or wholly at church or in everyday life or work due to personal heartbreak, heaviness of heart, sorrow, rejection, loneliness, and absolutely no friends. I knew God had brought her to me to help me recover out of this dark pit and it worked! This year I have bloomed at church, being fully able to serve, my mood lightened up, seeking God even more, feeling accepted again yet in a humble way, ready to fight again, knowing full well that He cares for and loves me. :girl:

i agree ,i asked God for a friend that i could talk to and trust, when a lovely woman moved in to the house next door to me, we have become fast friends and have so much in common. Thanks for sharing
 
Thank you

Thank you so much for your responses to my thread. Great to hear that it has actually been your experiences in your lives. Only God can give us those three types of friends because he knows when we need them and for what reason and in what season and to some extend a life time.

Let`s keep on praying to our Christ to show us the right people at the right time

I am sure that you are correct. I can recall those who have entered my life, for a reason. The reasons varied as you suggest, but Jesus brought them my way without doubt.

However I subscribe here because in my case, it has been I who enter the situation, circumstance, scenario etc for a reason. Whether there is a difference, you will need to make the judgement.

As a Christian......I have a word from God, a life from Him, which I must share with fellow men. But not all accept my Christian way of life.
 
Shingie my son,
I too have had 2 good friends who recently, this year, have also come into my life for a 'reason' I do miss them so, but there was one who took over their role, wonder who that is.........speaking on the physical side now, haha
We always have our spiritual leader, He who never leaves nor forsakes.

God does work in mysterious ways no doubt about it.

I do think we all need someone we can turn too though in times of crisis, saddness, bewilderment, and in the valleys, as an encouraging word goes far.

As you've said 'they are a Godsend indeed'

Thank you my Godsend.
I pray you are for longer than a reason or a season but for life. Amen
