How do I know? Here is my story.
I was working at a permanent/contract job and I truly wanted to get out of the field I was in (Accounts), so when someone with whom I worked with for a short time (he was really impressed with how I worked and fit in with the other employees) contacted me and said there was a job vacancy at the company if I would be interested I said sure I will come in and meet the manager.
So an appointment was made and I met with the manager in question. I liked her, she seemed to like me, thought we can work with each other, so it was decided that I will start with the company as soon as I can.
Started work on Monday 7 June, 2010, everything seemed to be going great. Friday 11 June, 2010, I was called into a meeting approximately 3pm and told that I didn't fit into the company and my services were no longer needed, better it was discovered now instead of 3 months later.
Talk about speechless, My God Is Great, lol, anyway I refused to make a scene, I just asked for compensation, I got 3 weeks salary and left.
I went home, got on my knees and asked God to Bless them, no matter how I felt to Bless them. Fasted from 6 to 6 Saturday and Sunday. Saturday morning it just came to me 'vengence is mine saith the Lord' but around lunch time the thought came to me to visit a lawyer concerning my dismissal. After that thought I got a headache for a few hours until I remembered that phrase 'vengence is mine, saith the Lord'.
My conclusion is that because I refuse to harbor unforgiveness and bitterness towards those who I feel had done me wrong that God will Bless me, like even I cannot imagine.
If I can forgive that incident then I can certainly forgive all the pettiness of the past and FREE myself.
Please share your thoughts with me.
Be Blessed!

At first I just stayed in bed. Slowly I began to recover and feel whole again. A fire was re-ignited in me that I hadn't felt in years and it put me back on track to complete some projects I had put on the back-burner partially due to the hours of this job! I felt like the universe was trying to tell me something. Like I was literally kicked started back on track. Today I am so grateful for what happened even though at times it still brings a lump to my throat. The difference is, I can shake it off and return to my focus with laser sharp preciseness. Amen to that!
