I am looking for a new job and would like to say I have complete faith and I that I completely trust in God/Universe which I do but here comes the BUT. I am having niggly thoughts that maybe I have made a huge mistake. This usually is during the night or when I wake up and then I remind myself that its all okay. Does it sound like I have faith even though I get niggly thoughts of not deserving (ego), that, I quickly quash as not important. I finish my other job April 20th and Know that I will have another job. I hope this makes sense, it does to me ;-) This little doubt bugs me or is it completely normal to have a little doubt?? I would love your input.IP: Logged |

A job is a physical thing, maybe less focus here and more focus on spiritual life could help these little nigglies?Your path will be shown to you... Funny thing about paths though, they are not always what we expect. God provides nourishment to even the little birds, does he not? How much more he must love you and care for you [made in his image]... He will provide for you. ------------------ Sendin' love your way, your friend in spirit IP: Logged |

I think this is perfectly normal. I made a big career change last April - I also moved from the countryside back to London as I knew that was where my path was to lead me for some time. However, even though I knew deep down it was the right thing to do I was leaving my comfort zone and I think however much faith that you have and trust in what you are doing is the right thing most people always have some doubt because the easy thing to do would be to remain where we are.I feel that what is important is that even with the niggles you know that you have made the right choice - for me it was part of my spiritual path as I was leaving a job that to me seemed souless and unfulfilling, to return to a job that I knew was truly what I was meant to do (if only for the time being). I now support people with learning difficulties and I am happier now I have made that change than I have been in years. I think you should be proud that you have made the difficult decision to change your job - many people can't or don't want to and it is then that people end being stuck in a rut and feeling unfulfilled. Be strong and know that what you are doing is right - I know that it is - see it as a new chapter and when you are feeling happier in your work you will be able to focus more of your positive energy on your spiritual path. Peace, love and light to you and may you find happiness in whatever you choose to do. ------------------ 'You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.
