Today, I acquired a new contract position within the IT department of a major financial institution. Am I happy? Of course! However, there is a little bit of fear regarding the unknown. For example:

• Am I leaving one annoying situation and jumping head first into another
• Will my new boss dump a ton of unattainable goals in my lap and expect all to be completed within a 3 to 6 month time span
• What about my old boss? Will he become angry and throw me out of the front door because, I promised to fulfill my 6-month contract and now he has to scramble to find someone to work out the remainder of my contract?

Why do I even care at all? I know that God’s got my back in any and all situations. I have to realize that it is not a crime to hate where you work and have the courage to do something about it!  Even if it means damaging an awesome business relationship, I still have to do what’s best for my family. I hate being stressed out every single day on my way to and from work.

My spirit simply doesn’t like my current contract position at this fast growing convenience store chain. I feel out of place, and I just can’t explain how evil the atmosphere feels to me. It’s such a strong feeling, and I’m unable to cope with it any longer. My creator won’t let me! It’s starting to affect me mentally, physically and spiritually. I find that I actually don’t want Saturdays to end!!! I loathe getting up on Sunday, and performing all those tasks that signal the start of the work week.

It’s time for a change, and I embrace whatever is to come.

Confession:

I let fear in, and it cripples my mind, body and spirit on a daily basis.

Affirmation:

I do not live in fear.

I do not fear the unknown.

Prayer:

Dear God

Help me to continue to trust in you for my strength, direction and guidance. Assist me in dismantling the cloak of fear that envelops my life.

In Jesus’ Name…Amen
