There are parts of my job that I absolutely love. And, there are parts of my job that I absolutely don't like (hate being a strong word). Good friends of mine are going through a time of job transition, and it makes me wonder about my own job. My job is good. It is stable, it pays well and provides wonderful benefits. I get paid vacation and sick leave. Lots of medical stuff is covered too. But, it does not use my gifts, it causes me stress and only certain parts provide me joy. There MUST be a better job or thing to earn me money out there. Of all the times where I can make a major transition in my life - this is it. I have some left over money from the house, my living costs are at a minimum.
There are two BUTs.
1) BUT - I'm afraid of letting go of the stability and safety of this job.
2) BUT - I want to follow what God wants for me, I honestly believe there is no other thing in my life that is worth doing than what He wants. I hope to define success more and more by doing what He wants.
But 2, kills But 1 - There is safety and stability in what God wants me to do, irrelevant of job.
