If there is a particular person in your life that is repeatedly choosing not to honor you and is causing you more sadness or pain than they are joy - it might be time to release that friendship back to God and trust that it is not where you belong. Mandy Hale
About This Quote

When we are children, we tend to believe that everyone who we meet in life is there solely to serve us and take care of us. We also believe that if someone treats us in a bad manner or does not honor us that we should feel sad and let them know how we feel through words and actions. However, as we grow up, we realize that no one is there to serve us or take care of us. If someone does not honor us, then it is time to release that friendship back to God and trust that it is not where you belong.

People are not there to serve you or take care of you. And if they are not serving you or taking care of you, then they are there at their own free will, so why should you focus on the negative?
