Need Advise and Prayers

I was hired as a temp in the accounting department to cover this ladies position while she went on maternity leave. Her sister works here and we worked together for about 12 weeks. The lady came back off of maternity leave and the company hired me on full time and cut the sisters hours down to 2 days a week. So now all three of us are working together and both of the sisters are making it very stressful for me. The tension in this office is so stressful. Everyone liked me while I was a temp and now that I am full time and the girl that has been here a year her hours are cut...I feel horrible and my boss says hang in there everything will be ok.. I don't know what to do?? Any sugguestions are welcome.
Thank you

More than meets the eye
by: Karen

My goodness. It sounds like you are in quite the situation.

I suspect there is much more than meets the eye in your story. There has to be a reason why everyone else's hours were cut and you were given fulltime hours. Normally when somebody goes on maternity leave, their job is protected while they're gone. I'm not sure it's even legal to give that full time spot away to somebody else.

Do you have job skills that aren't available in the other workers? Are you bringing something to the job that nobody else can bring? Is there a personal relationship somewhere in the company that is promoting your employment over others?

Without all the details it's tough to tell you how to smooth things over. The only thing I can tell you is that if your promotion to full time is something that you know in your heart is from God, then He will keep you there and will help things to settle down.

If you received this job based on things that have nothing to do with God, then it's not likely that God will intervene on your behalf. God has this way of making us suffer the consequences of things that are of our own making.

Blessings,

Karen

Father, I thank You for the favor You have bestowed upon this loved one, for every promotion comes from You.
Father, You are all Wise, and all Knowing-as it is written,"all things work together for good for those who love You." You have a wonderful plan for each of Your children.
Father, I pray for the other lady and her sister- I pray that You forgive their heart and attitude in regard to this ladies promotion. Circumise their hearts, and lead them into all truth-let them not hold onto positions, things, people, anything-only to Your unchanging hand. Bless them with Your peace that transcends all understanding,'n if need be,prepare their hearts for a change in direction, in Jesus Name.

Oh Lord, let all glory, honor,and praise be lifted up unto You for all the greatness of Who You are, 'n all that You continue to do for Your people.
