Everyone Can't Be In Your Front Row


a good friend once told me....

Life is a theater so invite your audiences carefully. Not everyone is holy enough & healthy 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 & family!


Everyone Can't be in Your FRONT ROW.


Observe the relationships around you. Pay attention to: Which ones lift & which ones lean? Which ones encourage & which ones discourage?
Which ones are on a path of growth uphill & which ones are just 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 & appreciate you & the gift that lies within you?


Everyone Can't be in Your FRONT ROW.


The more you seek God & 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 & truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the FRONT ROW & who should be moved to the balcony of your life.


Everyone Can't be in Your FRONT ROW.


You cannot change the people around you...but you can change the people you are around! Ask God for wisdom & discernment & choose wisely the people who sit in the FRONT ROW of your life. Remember that FRONT ROW seats are for special and deserving people & those who sit in your FRONT ROW should be chosen carefully.


Everyone Can't be in Your FRONT ROW.
