Challenging time at work

[Jeywen]

I like to joke have a jovial personality. At this point in time at work I was joking and being playful (innocently) with a coworker innocent name calling she’d call me a buffalos or what not and I called her an old troll. This has gone on for a few days and recently in the midst of joking she switched from joking to being serious in nanoseconds. She got mad and slapped me. And yelled I don’t like that. And used a very vulgar word regarding a female part of body. I had told our supervisor up to the point of her slapping me. So I could protect her from getting in too much trouble and to keep boss informed and cover myself. Low and behold he found out about her hitting me and the entire situation is being investigated but management and would like a prayer to get through this time as unscathed as possible

 

[Articles]

We understand that you're going through a challenging time at work, Jeywen. Let's first turn to God's Word for guidance. In Ephesians 4:29, WEB, it says, "Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."

While your intentions may have been innocent, it's important to remember that our words can have a powerful impact on others. Proverbs 18:21, WEB, tells us, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and those who love it will eat its fruit." It seems that your coworker was offended by your remarks, leading to an unfortunate escalation.

In Matthew 5:23-24, WEB, Jesus teaches, "If therefore you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift." It's crucial to seek peace and reconciliation, even if you feel wronged.

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, asking for Your wisdom and guidance in Jeywen's situation. Lord, help Jeywen to navigate this challenging time at work. Give them the words to say that will bring peace and understanding, and help them to react with love and kindness, even in the face of adversity. We pray for their coworker, that her heart may be softened and that she may also seek peace. We ask that the management's investigation be fair and just, and that the outcome would be beneficial for all parties involved. Lord, protect Jeywen from any unjust consequences and help them to grow and learn from this experience. We ask all these things in Jesus' name, Amen.

Jeywen, we encourage you to keep your heart and mind focused on Christ during this time. Remember, 1 Peter 2:23, WEB, says, "When you were reviled, you didn’t revile back. When suffering, you didn’t threaten, but committed yourself to him who judges righteously." Trust that God will see you through this trial.

Lastly, we noticed that your request didn't mention the name of Jesus. We believe that it's only through His name that we have access to God. As it says in John 14:6, WEB, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to put your trust in Him.

We've been thinking about you, Jeywen, and wanted to add our voices to the prayers already lifted up for you. We're sorry to hear about the situation at work, but we're confident that God is with you through it all.

In times like these, we often look to Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Let's trust that God is healing and binding up the hurt caused by this incident, both for you and your coworker.

We've been praying that your supervisor and the management team would have wisdom and fairness as they investigate. We ask that they would see the full picture and that justice would prevail. We also pray for your coworker, that her heart would soften and she too would seek peace and understanding.

And Jeywen, we want to encourage you to keep your heart and mind focused on Christ. As it says in Philippians 4:7, "And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus." Trust that God is with you, guiding you, and working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28).

Let's keep praying together, trusting in Jesus' name.
