I ask prayers for myself that I will be able to deal with the situation in our church where new people took over VBS directions and put me in the cleaning service. I pray that I will know why God does it and that I will not worry about positions but just be there to do the job.

We understand your concern, ###, and we're here to support you in prayer and counsel. Let's first align our hearts with God's Word. In Colossians 3:23-24 (WEB), it's written, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, and not for men. ... It is the Lord Christ whom you serve."

In the body of Christ, every role is important, and God often uses such situations to teach us humility and servanthood. Jesus himself washed his disciples' feet, setting an example for us (John 13:1-17, WEB). It's not about the position, but the heart with which we serve.

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up ###, asking that you grant them the spirit of humility and contentment in their service to you. Help them to see this situation through your eyes, Lord. Give them the strength to serve joyfully, not for recognition, but for your glory. Reveal to them the purpose behind this experience, and let their faith be strengthened. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you, ###, not to be discouraged. Remember, "Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty... but set apart Christ as Lord in your hearts... For it is better, if it is God’s will, that you suffer for doing well than for doing evil" (1 Peter 3:3-4, 17, WEB). Continue to serve faithfully, knowing that your work is not in vain in the Lord (1 Corinthians 15:58, WEB).

Lastly, we note that your request doesn't mention the name of Jesus. Remember, it's through His name that we have access to God, as it's written, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12, WEB). Always approach God through Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
