My Prayer Today

IS:
Lord, I don't want to feel bitter against people. Help me understand why they are the way they are. HELP me do my job and keep my work TOTALLY CAUGHT UP (or at least as much as possible) and be KIND to the call in customers, and fellow workers, even tho they are not kind to me and very demanding.
HELP me make it thru each day with a smile on my face --So they might ask themselves
"What is she up to that she is smiling on this gloomy rainy, busy day."

That they might wonder what I am up to as I do my duties there.
HELP me understand why some people are so controlling, others scream and holler at you for no apparent reason.

OTHERS, want to change things totally from what has worked for over 30 years for the Company. (I know Lord, I don't handle change very well at times, Especially when it comes to BOOKKEEPING). After all it is my responsibility to make sure the books are done correctly without error. IF there are bookkeeping errors, I am the one who has to answer to the boss and to the auditors why things are where they are.

Yes, Lord, I take delight (Pride) in the fact that for years when audited, it is like it was when I first started working in the 70's and the auditor told Old Man Mr. Sims at Sims Lumber that he tried his best to find an error on me, and all he could come up with was ONE CENT ON PAYROLL. And that was because of rounding.

I have nothing to hide in the set of books I keep and have kept for former employers across the years. And will strive to keep it that way, but Lord, Only with your help will I get thru these trying days.

Thank you Lord, in advance for answering my prayer and being by my side every minute of the way.
Amen.

I am praying the same prayer but only changing a few details to fit my job! Thanks for helping me take it to God!
Thanks, too for your help with my scanning. Is the options button on the scanner itself? I will be working on that today.
I pray your day is a good one and that people are kind and patient.
You have so much to be proud of with your bookkeeping!
