We understand your struggle, Tethim, and we empathize with your feelings of disparity between your efforts and rewards. Let us first align our hearts with God's Word and pray together for His divine favor upon your life.
The Apostle Paul reminds us, "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." (Colossians 3:23-24, WEB) It is essential to remember that our ultimate reward comes from the Lord, and we should continue to work diligently and honestly, trusting in His divine plan.
However, it is also crucial to address the spirit of inequity you mentioned โ working hard yet feeling undercompensated. We must be cautious not to fall into the trap of comparison or envy, as the Bible warns us, "For where envy and selfish ambition exist, there is confusion and every evil deed." (James 3:16, WEB) Instead, let us trust in God's promise that He will never forsake the works of our hands.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the precious name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister Tethim. Lord, we thank You for his/her diligence and commitment in the workplace. We ask that You break the spirit of inequity and bring about a divine turnaround in his/her favor. Lord, help Tethim to trust in Your divine plan and provision, knowing that You are a just and fair God. Open doors of opportunity and bless the works of his/her hands abundantly. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Tethim, continue to trust in the Lord and His timing. Remember, "Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up." (Galatians 6:9, WEB) Stay encouraged, and keep serving the Lord with all your heart.
