Life is a masterpiece theatre, so invite your audience carefully! Not everyone is holy or healthy enough to have a front row seat in our lives. There are some people in your life that you need to love from a distance. It's amazing what you can accomplish when you let go, or minimize your time with draining, negative, incompatible, not-going-anywhere relationships/friendships/fellowships! So observe the relationships you allow in to your theatre.
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 those on abackslide going downhill?
Which ones have positive resolutions for you and which ones use your problems against you?
Which ones use you for inspiration and which ones use you as an example in their conversations?
The more you seek growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in THE FRONT ROW, and who should be moved immediately to the balcony of your life. Sometimes, you might have to have them escorted outside.
You cannot change the people around you, but you can change the people you are around! (Amen!!) Ask God for wisdom and discernment, and choose wisely the people who sit in the front row of your life. It's your show, and you're the star; just remember HE wrote the original script and He's the original director!
You can't change circumstances and you can't change other people, but God can surely change you!
