While I was out and about last Saturday, I came across a Fall-themed coffee mug that said “Let’s Fall In Love”. Of course I bought it because I love seasonal decorations and the beauty of Fall makes it my favorite season. So I bought it with the vision in mind of drinking warm cocoa or a homemade latte on the patio in a blanket when the leaves start to turn colors and fall.

So you’re frustrated in your job, ministry or organization. I believe that many people leave their jobs for the wrong reasons. In fact, I think many people leave before their critical breakthrough.
