PRAYERS PLEASE!!
Dear Ms. Tonya,
I will say an extra special prayer for you! I can tell by reading your posts that you are such a sweet person! You don't deserve to be in the middle of a bunch of "mess"! I can really relate to what your going through because I've been there and done that! Would it be possible to step back into your old position or to get others to help you sort things out in your new position?
If neither of these suggestions are possible, try to find ways to relieve the stress! Perhaps some much needed "me time" is in order! Do some things that make YOU happy and feel good! Posting about your frustrations here is a great start! Above all else you MUST take good care of Tonya first and foremost!
Blessings!

Cheryl,
Thank you so much for your kind words! I feel so blessed to have the support of you and this board. It's just amazing all the time.
I know GOd will see me through this.
Next Sat is spa day! I tried to make an appt yesterday and they couldn't fit me in for today, but next Sat....here I come!
Hugs,
Tonya
Dear Tonya, This is my LIFE's verse: HE will keep you in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on YOU for he trusts in YOU. (Isaiah 26:3) The Lord is bullding you right now. I truly believe that there's something better for you THROUGH this becasue I know you trust in HIM!!! Just think how much you love your son and James, He loves you more than that!!! Doesn't that rock?!?! BTW, I using the verse right not to restore my soul!!! LOL I was with Dad and Mom this morning during their devotion. I cried when I realized that my parents pray for me every day. I am praying the Prayer of Jabez for you. Daddy said it this morning. He also shared something about a piece of clay becoming a beautiful teacup. I must still be in the furnace!!! LOL "May the Lord bless you indeed, and enlarge your territory. May His hand be with you, and keep you from evil, so that you will do not harm." Here's what I mean... Lord please give Tonya some relief. Prosper her, and give her great favor in her life with her work colleagues, especially the yucky boss person. Help her to cope, and give her great joy...even at work!!! Thank you for keeping her from losing her temper when she is tired or fed up. Use her to bless...I know He already does that cause you bless me!!
I love you!!!
Becky...sorry for the mini-sermon, it's a side-effect of being a preacher's daughter
Tonya, preach it, sister! And a big AMEN to those prayers. Tonya, hang in there. Sometimes we don't get the answers right away, but just knowing where to turn for the answers is the biggest step. You've got a lot of support here, and even more in higher places.
Blessings to you.... and keep us posted.

Becky,
I will write that verse down and read it regularly! I think I may tape it to my PC at work. You are awesome girl and know just the right things to say! THanks for the prayers! I feel so much better now. After I posted I started feeling better and thinking clearer....I think it was the Lord soothing my soul! I DO trust in Him and am eager to here what the Lord has to say at church tomorrow.
Love ya!
Tonya
HI!
Hang in there. My daughter was in your place about a year ago, she accept a position and had to clean up a big mess. Well today, she's doing fine and her bosses are pleased with her performance. Take it one step and one day at a time to fix all your problems you have to resolve, remember you didn't make the mess; hopefully, you can clean it up and make it better; who knows maybe your bosses have the faith that you can make it better. If you can't move on to something new. Remember change is good, you just have to accept it one step and day at a time. I know I have been there myself. You're in my thoughts and prayers. You are looking great and you've made it this far, just think, you have achieved the un-think able. Look at what you have accomplished. You go girl keep moving on. Remember no matter how bad it seems, you will get through it, look at your past and your present and you will see. You always achieve.
