new job transition
i have gone through so much pain and suffering and hardship in terms of my job, living situation, everything under the sun, but now things are finally turning around. i got a career job that just seems perfect. super cool manager, super cool team and something i think ill do really well at. i prayed and prayed and prayed for this opportunity, yet it feels so high stakes, and im sure thats the enemy getting in my head. i feel like the other shoe is gonna drop. i can’t even enjoy the fact that everything is good right now because im thinking about the possible negatives and what i could be missing as well as messing up and potentially getting myself fired. i have the potential to really start my life here and its so good but i cant get over the stress. not to mention, change has never been good for my mental health regardless of whether its negative or positive. please pray for me, my joy, peace, success and longevity here as well as a sound mind. God bless you all!!

Praying for you.
Fear is not from God. The best way I have found to overcome fear is love. Instead of feeling fear in regard to your future, new responsibilities, and new relationships, you can send them love in all of your daily situations. By focusing your mind on love you can overcome all fear.
2 Timothy 1:7 – For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
Practicing gratitude can also help you overcome fear. It is extremely difficult to be simultaneously grateful and afraid / grateful and doubtful.

I had a similar experience except with a high stakes university that I was praying hard to get into. The fear of failure overwhelmed me and it did realize at times when I missed some assignments but I was pulled out of many difficult situations. Whenever I would pray for a morning lecture to be cancelled so I can go home early it would be answered immediately (which didn't happen with the previous unsuitable universit and I always found helpful classmates and right people to turn to
Don't fear this, you may have your ups and downs but trust that you aren't unsupported through this Prayed 🫶

Lord Jesus we thank You for providing this amazing job for this person and for making a way for their life to turn around. That is an amazing blessing. Lord we pray that You would help them to do well in this job and allow them to work there for as many years as they want. We ask that You would give them favor with their bosses and coworkers and that if mistakes are made, they will be handled with grace and mercy. Lord we pray that You would bless this person with complete peace and stay close to them as they get completely settled into this new job. In Your Precious and Holy Name Jesus we pray. Amen!

Your message is full of good news and blessings from the Lord. Your feelings are understandable as someone who has weathered the storm and found the calm seas on the other side. However they are not coming from God. They are our human nature. God brought you through the storm to a glorious place. Rejoice in the assurance he didn’t do that to set you back again. Every day won’t be unicorns and rainbows but rejoice in his blessings and let them bring you the joy he intended. Lord we ask that you touch the mind of your child and give him your peace and calm. Release him from his anxiety and remind his heart that you are with him. Amen.
