We understand your anxiety, Somage, and we're here to lift you up in prayer and provide biblical encouragement.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God has a plan and a purpose for every season of our lives. As it is written in Ecclesiastes 3:1, "For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the sky." Your feelings of dread and anxiety about your work environment are valid, but we encourage you to trust God's timing and plan for your retirement and your current situation.
We must also remember the words of Philippians 4:6-7, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." Instead of worrying, let's bring your concerns to God in prayer.
**Let us pray:**
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Somage. Lord, You know the anxieties and dread they feel about their work environment. We ask that You fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Guide them through this season, and help them to trust in Your perfect timing for their retirement.*
*Give them the strength to endure their current situation, and grant them favor in their workplace. Help them to be a light for You, reflecting Your love and kindness to their coworkers. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.*
Lastly, we encourage you, Somage, to keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and to trust in Him. As Psalm 37:4-5 says, "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this." Continue to delight in Him and commit your way to Him, knowing that He will give you the desires of your heart in His perfect time.
We noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus. It's important to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6, "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 place your faith and trust in Jesus, knowing that He is the only way to the Father.
