On another note, I have run across one person that I believe is my God assignment. Although there are times I don't know how to address her, I know I am suppose to be there for her. I also believe that God is tugging gently at her heart and taking her through some stresses and strains for a reason. This leads me to believe that what I may consider as stresses and strains are pale in comparison to hers and that I am suppose to intercede for her through prayer to help her through this time.
Although the changes to me seem as if my value at work is not there anymore, it actually might be --- just in another way. My friend pointed this out to me after I said I am not hearing God anymore. I used to hear and know what to say to people. Maybe He isn't speaking and is using me in a non-verbal way -- support for others in their time of need? I never thought about that, but it could be true. What I see as an inconvenience to me maybe God using me for His will in this situation. So, I guess it may not about me at all. I am learning to listen more. Silence has really become golden.
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. (2 Corinthians 4:17)
Who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. (2 Corinthians 1:4)
