Being Fired — Unjustly

I hold together two things: this was wrong, and God is still sovereign

I do not say or do anything on the way out that I will regret

I do not make permanent decisions about the relationship while the wound is still fresh

I leave with my integrity intact — what I say and do on the way out is part of my witness

I bring the shock and anger to God before I take it to social media

I tell one trusted person what happened — I do not carry this alone

I resist the pull toward bitterness — it will cost me more than it costs them

I do not let someone else's injustice turn me into someone I do not want to be

I remain open to how God might use this — Joseph did not see it at the time either

I pursue appropriate recourse calmly and without vengeance as the motive

I tell my story without exaggerating — the truth is enough

I pray for the people who did this — not to excuse it, but to stay free
