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.


A Blessing to Friendship
Father, I ask you to bless my friend reading this right now
Lord, show them a new revelation of Your love and power.
Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this
very moment.
Where there is pain, give them Your peace & mercy.
Where there is self-doubting, release a renewed confidence in
Your ability to work through them.
Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I ask You to give them understanding, patience, & strength as they learn submission to Your leading.
Where there is spiritual stagnation, I ask You to renew them by revealing Your nearness, and by drawing them into greater intimacy with You.
Where there is fear, reveal Your love, and release to them Your courage.
Where there is a sin blocking them, reveal it, and break its hold over my friends life.
Bless their finances, give them greater vision, and raise up leaders, and friends to support, and encourage them.
Give each of them discernment to recognize the demonic forces around them, and reveal to them the power they have in You to defeat it.

I ask You to do these things in Jesus' name.

In Christian love,

Your Friend in Jesus



You've been there to hear my joys.
You've been there to hear my sorrows.
You've been there to share a joke,
You've been there to make me smile.

I'm so lucky to have found you.
I'm so happy that you found me too.
I'm hoping you'll be my friend forever.
I'm hoping you'll want to be mine too.

Let's promise to always be here for each other.
Let's promise to be the shoulder we cry on.
Let's promise to share the joys & triumphs.
Let's promise to always be the one to rely on.

Thank you for being my friend.




Because We Are Friends
Because we are friends, We've always been there for each other.
Because we are friends, We've been through alot together.
Because we are friends, We can share one another's problems As well as one another's joys.
Because we are friends, My life is richer, My world is brighter, My understanding is deeper,
BECAUSE WE ARE FRIENDS!



Friends are like fireworks,They shine bright and alive
They sparkle and glisten, And warm a dark sky.
They hover above, To make sure you are okay,
And listen when you have nothing to say.
They capture your heart, With a kind word or phrase,
And wish you good luck, When you're wanting that raise.
They know all your weaknesses, And still understand,
They're not there to judge you, But to just hold your hand.
When the darkest of days, Seem awful and near
A friend like a firework Brings warmth and good cheer.



Wishing you always...
Love to surround you...
Warm Memories to cheer you...
Good Fortune to walk beside you...
Happiness to fill your heart...
And God to Richly Bless you with His Love.


Friends are encouragement when times are rough
Friends are memories both precious and real
Friends understand and know how you feel
Friends are laughter and also tears
Friends are trusting, loyal and kind!!



I cannot build a Mountain Or catch a Rainbow fair,
But let me be what I know best, A Friend that is always there.


...A Friend is...
F...is for faith and loyalty
R...is for richness and beauty
I...is for interest and sensitivity
E...is for ever and ever
N...is for nourishment through laughter
D...is for the delight I feel when you are around
...Thank-you for your Friendship...


Friendship is like a special rainbow that never fades away,
A Friend always brings beautiful sunshine to brighten everyday.
...I'm so happy that you're my Friend...


~~The Golden Chain of Friendship~~
Friendship is a Golden chain, the links are Friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel It's treasured more each year...
It's clasped together firmly With a love that is deep and true.
And it is rich with happy memories and fond recollections, too...
Time can't destroy its beauty, for as long as memory lives,
Years can't erase the pleasure that the joy of friendship gives.
For friendship is a priceless gift that can't be bought or sold,
But to have an understanding friend is worth far more than gold.
And the "Golden Chain of Friendship" is a strong and blessed tie
Binding kindred hearts together as the years go passing by.


You are my Friend and I hope you know that is true.
No matter what happens, I will stand by you.
I'll be there for you whenever you need
To lend you a hand to do a good deed.
So just call on me when you need a me, My Friend.
I will always be there even to the end.


"Love today so you will NEVER have empty yesterdays."
