Ever hated your job? Gosh, I've BEEN there. What do you do in the midst of wanting to quit? Check out this vlog on, "Help! I hate my job!"
I work at a call center for a huge airline, but hate the job so much. It's nonstop calls of rude customers and just feeling so trapped. Somedays it feels like death be better than dealing with another day on the phones
Stay encouraged. Post scriptures at your desk. Stay in prayer. Be thankful for the job and find your inner peace. Leave those callers with joy and peace. You've got this!
quela smith Did you leave? I hope so. I find it crazy that anyone would encourage you to stay somewhere that makes you feel that way.
Sorry, to hear that stay encouraged and find hope in your current situation.
quela smith Did you quit? I have worked at call centers here in my country...and I know the feeling :( God is with you, He can guide you and tell you what to do ❤
quela smith, Call centers can burn you out. Stayed in one for 3 years. Awful existence. Finally I resigned. Trusted in God, had faith, and felt peace afterward. Things turned out ok. God is so good!
I definitely believe this applies to me. I'm very bored with my job. I don't feel passionate about it, I don't feel like I'm utilizing my gifts/talents to my fullest ability here, and sometimes plain uninterested in it but I'm grateful that I have something to pay my bills. I do pray that God opens doors for the right career for me soon but gives me the patience to wait on the mean time.
same here
Wow if this wasn't God himself speaking through you to me, then I don't know who was. thank you Heather for being obedient and delivering this message. I will do better by being more content in my job and in this season. As God prepares me for a bigger purpose in the next season of my life I will show myself faithful in this one.
Amen!
thanks Heather I just got off work and I'm crying in my car lol
Wasn't it right on time???
+Ianthas Insight definitely!!!!
Lol! I been wanting to cry, No quit, this whole week. I need to digest this....
Hey sisters,
For study purposes, 1 Peter 2:18* was the first scripture she was reading from. Just in case you all went to 1 Peter 3:18.
Yes I was just getting ready to type that. Praise the Lord that you noticed and posted it.🙌🏾🤗hugs
Thanks :)
@@mo-tshidisi Hi Motshidisi! O bua Setswana? Lol!!! Im Goitse
I was on a job that was hard on me. I wanted to quit so bad. However, I knew I was in my purpose and this was temporary so I prayed that I would not complain, that I would be content. I was so stressed with the work overload, I was never late , and I would stay after hours. I felt unappreciated. After many days of complaining and praying, I starting looking at the bright side of things. Then one day, I got called into the office for a meeting, and they fired me because of my certification. I just thanked them and told them I learned a lot. They gave me hugs and said that they wish me the best. I had no idea what would happen next but I felt so relieved. Ironically, I felt happy. I felt greater was coming. My husband is working now, but my blessing is on the way. I still do not know the point of that job, but it was a learning experience. I assume it was a lesson. There is a saying that things happen in life for two reasons, either a lesson or a blessing. I am still glad that I am no longer there, but I do miss the kids that I helped while I was there. My heart was ensuring them to read and write, but my season there is up. One door has closed and another has opened, I just need to walk through. Looking forward to see what's next!
I wish I would have found this before I left my last job. I knew it was a great job but found every reason to complain. My current job pays a little bit more but it isn't better than my last job and A LOT more work. I am a chronic runner lol. If I don't like something, i dip out fast but I need to stop doing that and seek the Lord. You can only run from job to job so many times until you realize the problem is you! Thank you for the video and for living for Christ!
Catrina Bennett Wow lo
That is me. Thank you commenting this. I definitely run from every Job I hate but like you said, if I keep doing that, I'll eventually some face to face with myself. Smh Its worth staying. Atleast to get past this text.
Something the Lord showed me is that sometimes the most unloveable people are the ones that need the most love! Perfect opportunity to show unconditional love and be a light as you stated! Great message!
Heather, you have tapped into the spiritual realm because TODAY I was on the verge of tears because my job is stressful. I try to be a light but it's hard when your coworkers refuse to do their job the way they were trained. Sometimes this creates extra work which causes the stress. sigh..... I Prayed for this job and He allowed me to get it so I'm trying to remain content during this wilderness. Cause I really don't want to be here for 40 years. Please Pray for me sisters and brothers in Christ.
If you are saying we have to struggle to get to the next level .... then the lord is about to bless me with the best gift of my life soon
I can't tell how on time this was Heather. I'm over here near tears.
So, so timely!
+Ashley .O. Sometimes God likes to show off a bit with his perfect timing! :)
I don't really hate my job, However I so desire to work in ministry full time. But WOW this blessed my soul! I heard God tell me just yesterday my Boss work ethic was helping to prepare me for a greater work and I can learn so much from how she does thing and her drive.... Confirmation!
I wish I heard this message a while back ago. I worked well at my job but my attitude didn't allow me to keep my job. I am Thankful I know this lesson now! I have already asked God for forgiveness. Remember people emotional intelligence is really important.
Wait, if people are cursing at you on the job, that's workplace abuse. Unless you're in the Army (in which that happens), you need to find another job!
i agree. she needs to clarify this
Sometimes God allows us to be in a difficult place, so we can reach dearly loved people for Christ. Just do your best, and remember who your real boss is.
Colossians 3:23-24 - Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Absolutely!
btw... The Bible Munch channel is so encouraging!
+NelsonsReview1
Thank you.
All the glory goes to God!
Amen! That's one of my favorite verses.
This is exactly what I didn't want to hear lol
God is always in time, I needed this word! Thanks Heather! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Omg thank you so much! I'm having the hardest time at my first "big girl job" as an ICU nurse. I'm dealing with people smiling in my face and stabbing me in the back, stressful situations, fatigue, the list goes on. I'm weary and have been planning my escape to be honest. I get so afraid to walk through those doors for so many reasons, but I have new encouragement now. I do see so many spiritual opportunities to grow if I can just get over myself for a second. Thank you so much Heather!
this video was a hard pill to swallow, I just burst into tears in the middle of the video, I've been at my current job for four years and I haven't been able to get out since, when I say God closed every door possible to try and get it out I mean He made sure that I knew He is God and that He is my provider. When I was in college if I didn't like a job I just left, no 2week notice no nothing. Now that I have responsibilities its not so easy to up and leave. your message hit so hard, I fully understand that scripture that talks about the narrow gate. Thank you so much for posting this my spirit needed this wisdom from God.
Wow! That really blessed me. I have been running from jobs since 2010. It seemed that overtime I took a job; I had a director from hell or it was completely disorganize. But the fact was; I was not light. I had a complaining and lazy spirit. I always looked for what a job can do for me. Whew, God really used you to bring forth this message. I am a Chaplain's wife and one of the Missionaries told me that if I keep running, I will continue to go through this test. Whew she was right. I have some work to do. Thanks for letting God use you.
Last job made me very emotional. I got fired years ago i was young and still haven't been job searching cause of fear and fear of making mistakes again. I have a hard time controlling my emotions and it gets worse and worse and i get really anxious. :'(
Nani
All, I can say is pray to God for him to give you the spirit of Boldness and Confidence. Remember God is with you and he will go before you and make a way where there is no way. Stay blessed.
I don't work but I do go to school, it's my full time job. & I feel like god spoke to me through you. School can get stressful and hard at times and I don't always put my effort. Thank you heather for your wonderful message :).
It is December 2017 and Lord knows I NEEDED this. I have been so discontent at my job lately. Thank you for this message
Amen Heather! Going through this right now!!! I'm going on my second year here and ppl have quit and been fired all around me. I've been on COUNTLESS interviews for other places and finally realized, with all the folks that have left here, and me being kept, its truly God's doing and I need to work as unto Him, until He sees it fit for me to be moved. Even if the money isn't enough. He still provides for me in the meantime and I know He has a plan, so I should just be still and patient. I will show myself FAITHFUL #ilovetheLord
This video is exactly what i needed to see. Being so upset and stressed with my current job, has gotten me to the point of questioning God " Please help me have more patience and get a new job that i LOVE!" What you have said resonated with me 100 %. Thank you so much for your video. Blessings!
Maaaan, TWO different vids on my timeline about being content w. where I am now. 😤😥😧 Maybe God's tryna tell me sumthing... 😶😒😅
Same
🎶👏God is tryna tell you something 🎶👏 lol ME TOO!
+Iesha Chamo Mmm hmm...i think He might just be girl, He does work in mysterious ways lbs!
Whew!!! Every word spoken was true and needed!!! Sooo thankful for you Heather! God's timing is perfect!! I had been contemplating on quitting my job. But I know God called me to it. I have to learn how to "rest under the blows"!
I've been going through so much at my job lately. This came down my feed today two years later. I love God so much... Thanks Heather.
Thank you so much for this word Heather Lindsey. I too am in this season right now going through postpartum depression. I'm like God why won't you let me leave? Now I know what I need to do in this season. I've been hearing contentment over and over again. Well here's to passing this test and overcoming depression. I pray that the Lord continues to use you as a light in this world😘
The Lord uses different times, people, obstacles, troubles, and blessings to mold and shape us into the person he created us to be.
Like Peter on the water, keep your eyes on Jesus, and the moment you feel overwhelmed, call and reach out to him!
I'm praying for you.
Exactly how I felt this week! 😩. Just had to keep telling myself "work as unto the Lord" This is so timely. Thank you for sharing
Thank you sister for posting this video. God definitely lead me here to hear His message through you. I've felt trapped and miserable for 6 years and couldn't understand why the Lord wouldn't let me leave this job. Now I know - I haven't been faithful with little, I haven't been a light and I've been lazy and complacent. I've confessed all of this to Him and asked for help - Praise Jesus
Thank you so much for this, Heather. I've been feeling that way. I needed to hear this. My attitude at work has been horrible. God is using you in such a tremendous way.
I was in a situation where I had a paid internship with an excellent company and didn't earn enough money, so I kept praying for God to bless me with a job with benefits. I really wanted to be with the company but they had no positions available for the field I wanted to pursue. I left the internship in Jan.2016 to start a new position that paid a little more. I thank God for carrying me through that one year with a low income because he always provided and made a way for me. Should I pray to God specifically about my career path ? I want to focus on my relationship with him and allow him to guide me.
I HARDLY EVER comment on videos, but this SO blessed me. I've been at my job for about a year. God told me He wanted me there for year and a half and I was sad, but just like Heather said I asked to be a light. Many of us want the big platform or the big purpose, but this season is preparing us for that big purpose. We must be faithful in the little things FIRST. Therefore, I've made a decision to do my job unto the Lord and not to repay evil for evil. Instead, I'll overcome evil with good. Cheers to the passing the test :)
I just started working at a company who has a negative reputation with dealing w/ diff nationality. They talked/ gossiped/ made fun of the person who I will be replacing. I keep this in my mind and now I decided that they won’t do it to me too. She told me to be ready if they started to treat me differently. Endure it, be calm and don’t cry.
Thank God I have no much *big* issues at work, I am blessed with that. But there were some places where I serve in church where I totally got into test and trials.. Thank God, He is faithful to those who keep living for Him. I almost wanted to quit but the Lord didnt let me... Now eventually it got worked out.
This couldn't have come at a better time! It's like every time you make a video it's like your speaking to me directly. I just got off of work and felt so discouraged and then i see this video.
+Pria Williams I feel that way too! I feel like she is talking to me because today I actually had tears in my eyes because I'm so stressed.
+Marlena Ling the Holy Spirit speaks through her!
Thank you Heather, I really needed to hear this message today. I work in retail for about 8 1/2 years now and I really don't like my job. I complain all the time I have a bad attitude whenever I walk into my building. The customer are rude and it affects my mood tremendously. I thank you for this message today. God is telling me I need to be content, because where he is taking me is going to be so much better.
I don't hate my job but I definitely want to leave so I can make more money. I know with all my credentials I have I could make more money but God hasn't released me from this job yet. In due season, though He will.
I'm in the same situation. I'm thankful for my job but I'm overworked and underpaid. I need a better job that will allow me to have a personal life and pays me on the level that I deserve, plus respects my position within the organization.
+lisa jones I believe you have peace about it but I believe God will make it clear to you through the Holyspirit. For example, with me there have been times where I would pray specific prayers in my alone time and then Joyce Meyer, Heather Lindsey, or someone who doesn't know me or what I prayed will preach on that very thin I prayed about. #confirmation.
I recommend praying to God about it and then rest until He answers. You will know, He'll make it plain to you.
I'm definitely in the same boat. I have a accounting degree and working at a Christian company (thank God) but I'm only a temporary employee with no benefits and making only $13 per hour. I've applied for countless jobs and went to interviews and been rejected from them ALL. Even with my degree and experiences. I pray the Lord blesses me with something much better but I'll be patient and content with where the Lord has placed me.
Definitely brought tears to my eyes. Love you Heather, and how GOD uses you. Thanks Love!
God bless you, Heather Lindsey !!
Well, I just asked for confirmation about quitting my job next month... mainly because I heard "a voice" say to do so while I was in church. But I wanted to be sure. And even if that is so, I know that I must continue to be faithful over where He has placed me. Even though I am not performing as best as I should for lack of motivation.. I should work to not only give glory to God, but to show my gratitude by His way of provision in this season. Thanks for an on time message..... as I literally watched the notification email slide across my MAC. May God continue to bless you and your family!
watched this when it came out.
watching again cos this is where im at rn...
hmmm
we are a light in a dark place- it ain't about us!! Amen!
Oh my gosh Heather! I am in this same situation! Sometimes i cry at my desk at the way they treat me.
be faithful with the little and I will give you more, awesome words
Thank you so much for this topic. The Lord has ministered to me. I have hated my job so much and I have always been asking God when He was going to get me another one. Now I have found a purpose in it. I will wait for the perfecting of His will in my life through the job. Thanks once again
Yessss. Thank you Heather!! I remember working in summer school and my boss would always point out my mistakes in front my students and just make me feel bad. Some days I would just want to cry, but I had to suck it up. I'm just happy the God gave me strength to keep on going.
Wow! This is amazing! I've been in the same situation and crying all night about my school sitution. I'm in a Masters program and have been isloated in my small cohort by a group of people. But this message encouraged me to stay in and serve the Lord because I prayed to be here. Wow! I'm going to listen to this message everytime I need encouragement. Thank you so much!
Stay encouraged sis. I know the feeling so well. God's with you
Right. On. Time. God is so faithful. Thank you, Heather for allowing Him to use you.
Omgosh, u look sooo beautiful and that top is gorgeous. This message is exactly what I needed, my mind is filled with negativity about my job.
I really need to learn how to organize and pay attention to details. I know I would be so much further along. This video touched me.
Thank you!!!! This message was so on time for me and really spoke to my soul because I have been feeling this exact way for some time and didn't know what to do.
So amazing you put this up! This entire week I have been praying on rather or not to leave my job. I've even started applying, although I love what I do. I wanted more pay, and because I started to "feel" unappreciated. I work hard and go above and beyond no matter, but lately started slacking because of these " feelings" I'm letting get to me.... Now,I will pray differently after watching this, with less of me and my feelings and wants. And more towards God's requirements of me. I'm not gonna move on until HE tells me to! Thanks Heather! Perfect timing!!
Heather, I thank God for you and allowing the holy spirit to use you mighty. I saw this message going through this channel and I saw the post. God spoke to my spirit and told me to listen and I was obedient to His voice and I am praising God for the answer. I must be content in this season. God is preparing me to a promotion and I did not see it at first but now I am hearing and seeing it now. Thank You God for showing me the way. Be content. God bless.
Allelujah!!!! This is so me!!! I'm trying to be and do better... and I know this is a season n that things will turn around!!! much needed word!!!
Hi Heather. I'm Mariana from Brazil and you have NO idea of how God talked to me through you in this video. Gosh, that's it! I gotta it now. I don't even have words to thank you for share this message, it's preparation time in my life and I'm sure of whats gonna happen next (since He's promised me). May you received all the blesses that are already available for you in heaven. XOXO
A word in season, God bless you Heather x
it's actually really insane how I was just thinking man... idk what I'm going to do tomorrow at work
This is so true. I remember when I started present job two years ago....how I always used to get into arguments with my boss and at the same time I really wanted to please the LORD. He began to direct me and teach me how to walk in love. How to be completely submissive to authority and really obeying the LORD in these areas brought tremendous peace to my heart. The LORD showed me how to become the intercessor, the prophet and the apostle over the place where I work, to seek the blessing and the growth for the company and to the LORD be all the glory, I have found favour now in the sight of the boss that I always used to have issues with. Every phase in our lives is part of the LORD's sovereign purpose. I am meeting new people everyday and always speaking to them about JESUS CHRIST. Thank you very much Heather and God bless you.
I am pretty much rolling my eyes right now🙄🙄 I am just so over my job😫💔my attitude is bad I admit👎I am angry (almost everyday) at all the expectations the company has not met😡😡😭😭😭I need God’s help😭😭I know that Heather is speaking truth🙏🏼I will show myself faithful at my job and watch what God will do. Thank you Heather!♥️
Wow this spoke to me today... Im also in the corporate work and want to leave, but I dont feel like the Lord is leading me to leave quite yet... I 100% see how this job and my managers are shaping me into a better worker for Gods glory.
I soooo needed this! Dealing with individuals who undermine and scrutinize in the work place makes me want to just leave. But you made such a good point, I was focused on my feelings, what I feel I deserve, etc.....and not what God wants me to learn. Okay my eyes are open now! It was never said being the light in dark places was easy lol
timing of this video is perfect for me ....thank you
God's timing is perfect :)
This was soooo for me. And yet another confirmation!!! The preached word at my Revival last night "I am more than that!" I'm trusting in God for where I am in this season. I know it doesn't look good at allllllllllllll but I'm here for a purpose. Okayyyyy God I hear you! Thank you Heather for your obedience 🙌🏾
All I can say is wow heather this was such a timely message in this season of my life. God is definitely using you!
Wow thank you Ma'am for this awesome video. I can say this was so specific for me, I do much wanted to quit my job today but now I'm inspired. I've got a word for the situation and I'm gonna let my light shine so bright!
Wow On Time Message for me!! Thank you Lindsey for this 🙏💕
Heather, your message blessed me and convicted me today. I’ve been asking the Lord to bless me to find another job, and I keep asking God why I’m still where I am. My co-worker who is a believer and my mom both have told me I have a test to pass before I can move forward. I think I’m being tested in my love walk and in the ability to forgive those who have offended me or have treated me unfairly and unkindly instead of being bitter. Like you reminded us, we are to work unto the Lord and not unto man. God bless you!
Thank you Heather for this video. I am so through with my job and tired everyday of the foolishness that I have to endure on a daily basis! God bless.
Thank you for the great tips, I have been very overwhelmed and
You reminded me of what God blessings were when I did not have a job.. I'm grateful for the time and how God has kept me. Thank you for reminding me to be patient and this is only for a season. I await the next season for God will lead me in His timing and direction. Thank you for sharing.. God you are awesome..
Thank you Lord! God lead me here before going in to work. And thank you also Heather! God has used you to be a blessing to me today through this message.
Wow! Thank you. I am so convicted right now. I called in tonight so I could just have a "day off" and I should have gone in. I am going to work as unto the Lord from now on out. I ask God to use me in big ways and don't work as unto the Lord. Fast Food or not, God can use me there too.
Thank you!
I'm so glad I viewed this, on point message! Another confirmation, I'm here for a reason. #helpLord
I definitely needed this, God is so good! I'm thankful that He used you for this, I almost walked out of my job a few times this week, I need to show myself faithful in this season thank you
I'm trying not to make this about me BUT man, this word is for me tonight!!!! After a hard week at work I needed this!!!!
Wow that was so good don't get off - ended! Don't get off from the end God intended! For us because of attacks!! Praise God for this video Heather this is Me in this season but I AM growing and learning how to love!
Wow. On time word, thank you for your obedience. Thank you Lord.
I Really Needed This Im At That Point Right Now In My Life, I DO NOT LIKE THIS JOB ! IM SO UNHAPPY ! I Need To Leave It To God Right Now Instead Of Being So Negative & Trying To Control It Myself
The Holy Spirit made me click on this video, JUST IN TIME. I had a rough day. Be Blessed Heather in Jesus name
wow! needed this video. I'm a temp employee at Disney corporate office with NO benefits but I'm gonna work at this job like I'm working for the Lord. I'll be patient and wait for the Lord to send me something better
Heather, thank you for this video, this video was what I needed. God bless you.
I work in Radiology and talk about hating your job and picking the wrong career. I'm stuck doing this a little longer to save up money to pay tuition for a new career. So I have probably 6 months left of this crap. I am so tired of being mistreated at work by the doctors , patients , catty coworkers. Radiology sucks !
Just got home from work. Really needed this, thank you.
Thanks Pastor Heather! I really needed to hear this. I'm now confident that I'm in the right place and moving in the right direction. I really needed this. Thank you.
Thing is, if it's affecting your health physically that's a whole another issue. I am working a part Time job in between school, and I can't eat until 3pm or 2:30, And if I don't eat at proper times I can't think straight, I get shaky, feel sick, or faint, and emotional etc. I have hypoglycaemia and need protein 3x a day or more.
Added to that they cut my hours less than half, and they are abusive and unappreciative too.
I need to make more money for school, and am beyond tired of them.
One day I had severe pain, and they did not care.
I've been sick from this job so many times in only 3 months, and never from any other job.
I am glad I endured 3+ months though. I wanted to be gone from there in week 1.
heather ima need you to get out my business grl omg !!i say these exact words daily. God is speaking thru u to me !!!! thank you !!
this is where I'm at now. I've lost interest in my current job. yes I want to quit like now but I need to remain content and work hard. in which I have been doing but I'm so tired and exhausted physically. However, I need to remain content in this season with God's help.
Oh gosh...as soon as I was thinking about quitting today..I see this video. 😔 thank you❤️
Heather, you have no idea how this helped me!! This week at work was tough. After seeing this I know it all has a purpose, and that I must be a light in the workplace God bless you sis! 💜
exactly what i needed to hear. my work is my ministry. spread love wherever you've planted. thank You Jesus.
thanks dear Heather. God bless .. -love from Indonesia ❤-
Amen, God is so good. He has been working with me on hearing his voice. I have known for a while now it was time for me to leave my job. I am graduating with my masters degree soon and the position I am in is not in my field. I was unsure of how/when to leave as I did not want to be a burden on the company, although I know I was not reaching my full potential. God told me 9years ago that I was called to the field of social work. I just needed the degree to back it up.
Last week when you posted this I was trying to watch it but couldn't find the time (that was Jesus and I didn't even know it). In the days to follow the Holy Spirit gave me a date on when to leave my current position as has opened up doors for the career my heart desires. If I had watched this video before I may have allowed Satan to twist your words and feel convicted for leaving. Thank you for sharing. Although the overall message you were conveying doesn't fit my situation I know that God used you to help me anyway.
I just got a new job. I'm praying to God for the environment I'm going into. Thank you for this.
Timely, timely, timely! Thanks for your obedience...ALWAYS. Love you so much for it! Heatheeeeeer, we have got to get you to change that "onto" to "UNto". Lol! 😂 I always hear you say it and see you write it, and I'm like, "We're gon' fix that. We gotta get it." It's the editor and English teacher in me. 😉 And she really comes out for the people I care for. Just always want them to be right when they present themselves to others. Did it distract from what you were saying? ABSOLUTELY NOT, but again, the editor just wants to share that with you in love. ("As UNto the Lord..." )💕
You had inspired me awhile back to create a curse jar at my old job...people ACTUALLY put their quarters in it! :-)
The timing couldn't be more perfect!
Thank you for this message - I need to hear this regularly to remind me that I am a steward of the Lord and bless my coworkers!
this came literally right on time. Had a conversation with God about leaving my job lol
Heather you better speak that truth. Thank you this is soo good. Praise God..this is good Word!
Wow! I just recently attended the Pinky Promise Conf. and your UA-cam popped up on my feed! How wonderful is that!? Since the conf. ive been at peace and other than being overworked I feel more content and less frustrated w my job. However how do we deal when we have talents that we are not using? Should i even look to be content or should i be looking to use my talents? I grad 10 yrs ago with an Illustration degree but never applied to a position and am working a job that is stressful and bad for my health. I have not worked in the corporate art field at all and feel I am wasting my gift but I don't feel led in any direction. I am not sure what to pray or what to look for. I feel content but stuck in a way as well...
GfyEmyLouLou Totally understand how you feel! Join the club.
I SERIOUSLY needed this at this very moment of 11:38 pm. Thank you Jesus!!!
