I messed up at work - bill - 07-27-2011 08:15 PM
Here's the situation, I work in retail. Tonight I became embroiled in a verbal altercation with a customer. There are a lot of details I'm skipping. The point is, I handled it all wrong. This will cost me my job. I'm in trouble, as I need the job.
I need divine intervention on this thing. I'm wrong, I accept responsibility for my actions. In no way am I trying to sugar coat my error or to try to blame anyone other than myself. The buck, as the saying goes, stops here.
That being said, Jesus, help!
I am a horrible sinner, and there is not much in life I can point to with pride. The job causes me a lot of physical pain, and every night I come limping in barely able to walk. But it is my job. I'd like to say I'm doing the very best I can, but that might not be entirely accurate. I'd hate to lose it because I'm an idiot. Please pray for me. Thank you

I am praying for the same thing for my sins tonight, that God will forgive the inequities (results) of my sin. I could lose my job, my name in this town made into mud, and my children and wife humilited. Lets trust together God's merices. Please post the outcome.

I believe Jesus is the Son of God and the only way to the Father. I believe firmly in His quickness to forgive you, me, all of us.
I tend to shoot myself in the foot a lot. It's only by the grace of the Almighty I am able to sit here and confess my sin and ask forgiveness tonight.
I had a stroke four years ago, and the fact I am able to work a 40-hour week is a miracle. Jesus, thank You for allowing me to be here, and forgive my sins.
Any way, praise the Holy Name of Jesus.
