Recently, I got passed over in my job. This is the third time in about three years. Everyone else has gotten to do it and I wanted to. I've been with the company for six and half years. I felt entitled to do it since I had been where I was longer than anyone and wanted to move on. As other people were given the opportunity to do it, I would start to think,"Hey, that's what I'm supposed to be doing!" I even really liked these people too. I was getting discouraged and aggravated.
I finally started to get it. It started to really sink in that I was trying to control my life. Even though everyone else had moved on, didn't mean that was God's plan for me. Whether or not those in a management position had the same reasons as God, it doesn't matter. God wants me exactly where I am. I know that I'm good at what I'm currently doing and I've surrendered my ego and control of my life in that area. I am for once ok with where I am. It has taken some long years to learn this lesson. But I finally...
Let Go.
Let Go.
I thought about my ways, And turned my feet to Your testimonies.
~Psalm 119:59
