Emotionally stressed out !!

I after long prayers got a job.I never looked for a job . But still .. the bible says to work .and whatever my hands find.... with all might !
I have been working for 3 months now . But its the kind of job no one with my educational qualification will accept to do .. But i know i have to humble myself...... and its really very humbling job infront of all unbelievers....

i work ... but my heart is heavy . i go with prayer everyday ... hoping if i am honest ..god is watching ... he will one day raise me........ but the job itself is something i really cant do in my natural insticts..but i still force myself to do it ..because i work for god..... its a extremely low esteem job ...specially infront of christians who are educated...infront of the people who knew me in the past.... im NOT COMPLAINING abt my job now.... but i got tears flow down my eyes every day when i come back from work....... for 3 months i havent stopped crying .... i rejoice in my heart ... i thank god for giving me a job ..while many dont have .... but by the end of day ...im tired... i have reached spiritual threshold many many times........and i wanted to quit...and today is one of the times....... i have better jobs waiting for me..... but when i pray in gods will.... this place where i am working is where i still am !!!

i was supposed to be in airline cabin crew if all had gone right ..... but now im caught with this....

im extremely stressed out emotionally..... my family is against my work ... they feel they are loosing their esteem in their workplace..and their people talking low of them ... because i work here /..... and so i have become a burden to them all too ..........

all said .. i myself feel so lowered down, ... i thought it will be over by that day ...but its been draggin on for months.... i really couldnt take the pain and tears anymore....


here i am ... asking fr some prayer help .. help me in prayer somebody !!

Sorry to hear of all you have been going through lately. Those things can certainly be a humbling experience. I have been there before, working a job that others thought was beneath me. But I now know that god can take any circumstance and use it to make me stronger than I am. And let's not forget: Jesus went beneath himself when he came and lived among us. We're talking about God becoming human! Now that is humiliation! But he loved us so much that nothing could stop him from doing whatever he had to do to win us salvation. That is why we should always love him: because he first loved us.

Anyway, not having peace is an indication that your eyes are not focused enough on God- but on your circumstances. If you put your mind back on God, then his peace and joy will dominate your life, no matter where you are working. The Bible says, "God gives him perfect peace whose mind is stayed on him"(Isa.26:3); it also teaches us to not be anxious for anything or worry about anything, but to let our requests be made known unto him, with thanksgiving filling all of our prayers, and then the peace that passes all understanding will guard our hearts and minds. God's peace will overwhelm us so much that where we work at or whatever problems are going on in our lives won't bother us anymore. As a matter-of-fact, we will start thanking God for where we are, no matter how bad things. Such circumstances can be used to build your character and help you learn to walk in joy anyway. That's mostly why God allows such things to happen.

So don't worry about anything. Just watch your focus. Put it back on Jesus and his will for your life. It is then that he will elevate you from this job in time. But you must pass your test now. You must find joy in God right where you are first. Never let circumstances dictate to you how you are supposed to feel. If you do, then the devil will always work to create bad circumstances to control your thinking. Don't give him that advantage. Rejouce wherever you are!

God bles you!

Every single day is full of small miracles...sometimes, we are just so wrapped up in our worries that we don't see the wonders God has put before us. Please do not worry about what others think or say of you, as difficult as that may be...remember that God has a plan for you and sometimes we have to be somewhere we would rather not be in order to fulfill that plan. You never know what God has just around the corner.

May your days be days of completions...PERFECT days; miracles following miracles and wonders never ceasing.
