I had
been working in my job in the healthcare industry for more than four
years and was ready for new challenges. However, no promotions were
being offered when there was a change in the management. This caused
friction among staff members and produced a less productive work
environment.
I
became very unhappy due to the lack of a work-life balance. I felt
constantly stressed in the new work environment and was worried about my
kids who were alone at home after school.
I felt trapped and dreaded going to work every day.
I
started applying for over a hundred positions within and outside of the
company and went for several interviews. However, I was still unable to
find a new job. Instead of feeling discouraged, I decided to labor to
rest in Jesus’ finished work (Heb. 4:10–11) and thanked Him constantly
for being my provider.
I felt comforted knowing that the Lord had already provided my dream job even though it had not yet manifested.
When
the time came for my company to give out bonuses, all employees were
told that we would receive a pay increase on top of our bonus. Although
it was a wonderful blessing, I still wanted a new posStates
That was when i recieved call from an interview for a dream job I had applied for.
The
interview went very well and I believed that the Lord would provide
this job for me. I was soon called up for a second interview and was
offered the job a few days later!
I
also managed to negotiate for a higher salary after I asked God for
favor and the right words to say. The company matched my asking salary
very closely and I started my wonderful new job two weeks later.
My
new boss is also a blessing to me. She is very kind and understanding,
and even allows me to work from home one day a week. She has also
discussed with me the possibility of promoting me to a senior position
within a year!
I’d
like to thank the Lord for a triple blessing—the bonus and salary
increase from my previous job, as well as the salary increase in my new
job. I am also enjoying a flexible work-life balance today.
Thank
you so much for your ministry, Pastor Prince. I have been listening to
your teachings for a while now and have been blessed. Your messages help
me experience the Lord’s presence, love, and grace in my life.
May the Lord continue to keep you, your family, and your ministry in His grace and favor!
