My managers finally broke the news that the end of August will be my last day. Writing that feels scary. I have been handling the news pretty well. The job was really toxic and I spent alot of my days crying. But I feel in my heart that it is the right decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For months, I had been isolated at work. Projects were taken away from me, meetings were held without me. It had been clear since 2023 that I was being pushed out. So I was glad to finally have a clear answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I trust in the Lord to find me another opportunity. But right now, I’m so grateful that he has moved me out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Friends and family are scrabbling to help me find something but I feel in my heart that the right thing to do is just to stand still. Let the Lord work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I heard the story about the Shunammite women and her son, I couldn’t help but relate. I felt like God had given me this job which is why when things went badly, I reacted in a rather negative manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had a stable job before this. It was difficult and it wasn’t that well-paying but I learnt alot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It felt like by moving me to this company, I had made a bad move. But it was a move I made because I trusted that it was what the Lord wanted for me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would be lying if I said I didn’t still have my doubts from time to time. But we serve a faithful God and I trust that He will step in and resolve this in His own timing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
