I commend your Mom and Dad for their love and helping you understand what God has planned for you. Sometime this is a very difficult point to get across with our loved ones. Wishing you and your family many blessings!

I pray for my husband every day, as he has been dealing with this at his job. Thank you for this reflection, it offers hope and a new perspective that true joy comes from Christ in us.

I have prayed for a way out of my job for years. When I really meditate on it, it’s not what I do that causes me stress. I really enjoy my job, when I’m left to do it in the way I feel it needs to be done which allows me to take care of my customers as I feel they deserve. Unfortunately, the increasing workload and unrealistic requirements piled on, don’t permit that. I’ve come to realize that this is exactly where God wants me to be. I am learning to let go of my perceptions of what needs to be done and accept that not every email or request has to be answered immediately. He is teaching me and I need to be open to His will and learn to do what I need without complaining and with gratefulness for the job that provides for me and my family. God Bless.

I am touched by your story. Your story applies to me in a way: some times God allows us to find ourselves in a career we think we do not want, He allows it for his own purpose. He sees the future and knows what is best for us, He allows us to work where he deems fit for us and where He wants us to serve him in other people. If we allow His will to be done, allow God to work in us, allow God to lead us and surrender our work and career to Him, He will help us, bless us and give us fulfillment in our work and in life.

Thank you for sharing your story and for encouraging me.
