Thank you Lord for taking care of me.
This journey started back in 2011. I was working a job that I couldn’t advance on at all. My supervisor at the time wasn’t a very pleasant person to work for.
I went to the conference room for my yearly evaluation to receive my yearly raise.
Needless to say that meeting didn’t go as I expected it to go.
I was told that my attitude was bad and I would never make it on another job. Also was not given my full raise. I was disappointed when I left the conference room.
I felt like I was just kicked in the stomach and almost cried.
I couldn’t talk to my husband at the time about what was going on.
So I lasted only two more years on that job.
Work was slow and they lost some contracts. So I was laidoff along with 27 other people. I was told it was temporarily. I was called back a couple of months later and worked for just one week and was just let go again. I didn’t know what to think about what just happened.
I have tried and tried to get back to work.
Everytime this particular company needed some people to work I called the temp service that we were told to call and get set up with. When all is said and done I was told that you are on the do not call back list. I don’t understand why this happened. I always did what I was told.
I just wasn’t going to let the supervisor and HR people talk to me any kind of way.
I felt harassed on the job and I really couldn’t report it, because I felt like everyone was against me.
I do admitt that sometimes I let my mouth get the best of me. Well when you’re getting picked at on a daily basis and your support isn’t there then you defend yourself.
I had people watching me all the time and there were some lies told on me. I was written up for some things I didn’t do. I did not sign the write-up. I wasn’t going to take the blame for something I didn’t do. I stood my ground and lost a job because of standing up for myself.
This blog isn’t a pitty party for myself. I’m informing everyone that the Lord had different plans for my life.
He didn’t want me stuck on a job that I wasn’t about to be able to advance at and people mistreat me.
I have been trying to get some employment for the last eight years. I have been to the point where I felt like I would never work again.
My old supervisor’s words rolling around in my head and making me feel very low.
My confidence is a lot better now. I have the best support ever. I have the Lord on my side. When the Lord is on your side, you are on the winning side.I know I can do all things through Christ.
Philippians 4-13 says,
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
I have some news. I went to an interview a few weeks ago and with the help of my Lord and some people speaking on my behalf I received a job. So to God be the glory.
Faith as small as a mustard seed can move a mountain. I trusted God and he took care of me.
