God will direct your path!

I have the hardest time letting things go! When people do me wrong, I take it so personally. I think this is because I expect people to treat me the same way I treat them. Sadly, this rarely happens. It has been proven time and time again that people do not have the same heart that I do. So the recent events in my life have really hit hard. I was terminated from a job for doing what I was hired to do. I was informed that I would be replacing the current office person and that I needed to make this job more efficient and effective. I was doing just that! And yet, I was fired for poor job performance. WOW! That really hurt.

I spent that first day in a downward spiral! Hurt, confused, LOST! I could not make heads or tails of what had happened!

But God…

But God was protecting me from an environment that was evil. That I was not meant to be in. I know now that I was surrounded by liars, manipulators, and two-faced people that did not have my best interest at heart.

Over the past week, I have tried to put this event out of my mind. I try and fail every time.

But today, while I was getting a manicure that I probably should not have been getting, I was praying. Praying that God would take that time of me being still to give me the scripture that my heart needed to make my brain stop worrying about something that was out of my control. After all, God removed me from a place that was not meant for me. Protecting me from a table where my name was being slandered that I was not even sitting at.

This is how God works… within a minute of saying this prayer, I got a text from a sweet, God fearing woman with this message:

All I could say was, Every time! Every time God will give you the words that you need to get through any situation that you are in.

I hope that this helps someone that finds themselves in trying times. Those that are going through the same type of fire that Nebuchadnezzar used in the book of Daniel. But please remember, you are not alone. God is that fourth person in the fire, offering you protection!
