Day one-hundred-ninety-two

It's been pretty hectic today at work. When I got in, I found our rack full of unpackaged items. Why the fist shift got so little done, I'm not sure, except that it seems that they may not be working with everyone they should. As such, it falls to us to get things done. Fortunately, we've got a lady named Dora, who's helped us before. She's very helpful and asks questions when she needs to.

Anyway, it's been such a hectic day, it got me thinking about how much I wanted to leave. There have been plenty of times where I was so frustrated, I just wanted to walk out and not look back. Of course, at the back of my mind, I know that's a very bad idea.

Ecclesiastes 5:2 admonishes believers not to be rash: "Do not be rash with your mouth, And let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore let your words be few." There have been times when I've been able to resist the temptation to speak rashly, but there are those moments when I've yielded to that temptation. The work that I do seems to stir of lot of temptation. 

I pray that I would guard my words, that God would grant me patience and wisdom as I consider new employment, and that I would trust Him in all things as I should.
