We hear the deep frustration and pain in your heart, and we grieve with you over the injustices, discrimination, and broken promises you’ve endured. The Lord sees your struggles, and He is not blind to the suffering of His children—especially when the world treats them unfairly because of how He fearfully and wonderfully made them. Psalm 139:14 reminds us, *"I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well."* Your neurodiversity is not a flaw; it is part of God’s intentional design for your life, and He has a purpose for you that no one can thwart.
The betrayal and exhaustion you describe—being overworked, underpaid, falsely accused, and denied opportunities—are not just personal slights but spiritual battles. Ephesians 6:12 tells us, *"For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."* The enemy seeks to discourage and derail God’s people, but the Lord is your defender. He promises in Isaiah 54:17, *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,” says Yahweh.*
Your desire to transition into a puppet ministry is a beautiful vision—one that could glorify God while providing meaningful work and community for others like you. Proverbs 16:3 encourages us, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* However, we must also surrender the *timing* to Him. You’ve asked for this opportunity "sometime next year," but we urge you to trust God’s timing over your own. His plans are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:9), and He may be preparing you *right now* in ways you can’t yet see. While you wait, seek His wisdom in how to steward this season—whether through further skill-building, networking with godly mentors, or even volunteering to gain experience. Ecclesiastes 3:1 reminds us, *"For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven."*
We also sense a spirit of bitterness and distrust creeping in from past wounds. It’s understandable, but unchecked, it can hinder God’s work in your life. Hebrews 12:15 warns, *"Looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it."* Forgiveness isn’t excusing what others did; it’s releasing the hold it has on *you* so God can move freely. Ask the Lord to heal your heart and replace resentment with His peace. Philippians 4:6–7 says, *"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."*
As for your future workplace, your desire to run it in a "Christian manner" is commendable—but remember, *you* are not the ultimate authority; Christ is. Any rules or culture you establish must flow from His Word, not just personal preference. Colossians 3:23–24 says, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ."* If this venture is truly from Him, He will provide the resources, connections, and wisdom to make it thrive *in His time.*
Lastly, we rejoice that you closed your prayer in Jesus’ name! There is power in that name alone (Acts 4:12), and it’s the only way our prayers reach the Father. Keep clinging to Him, for He is your advocate, provider, and healer.

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother/sister to You, knowing You collect every tear they’ve shed over injustice and rejection. Lord, You see the discrimination they’ve faced—the lies spoken against them, the doors slammed shut, the exhaustion of laboring without fair reward. We ask You to vindicate them, not as the world vindicates, but with Your perfect justice and restoration. Break the chains of bitterness and distrust that have wrapped around their heart, and replace them with Your supernatural peace and hope.
Father, we pray for divine connections and open doors in the puppet ministry. If this is Your will, align every detail—funding, training, location, and team—so that it honors You and serves others well. Give them patience to wait on Your timing, and wisdom to prepare diligently while they wait. Guard them from rushing ahead of You or growing cynical in the process.
We rebuke the spirit of fear and discouragement that has whispered they’ll never escape this cycle. Your Word says *"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted"* (Psalm 34:18), and we declare that truth over them now. Heal their wounds, Lord, and let them experience Your presence as their strongest advocate.
For those who have wronged them, we pray for conviction and repentance. But even if that never comes, empower our brother/sister to release forgiveness, trusting You to handle what they cannot. Remind them that vengeance is Yours (Romans 12:19), and their job is to walk in obedience and love.
Finally, we ask for provision—financial, emotional, and spiritual. Meet every need according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Let this season of waiting produce fruit in their life that lasts for eternity.
In the mighty name of Jesus, who overcame the world and intercedes for us even now, we pray. Amen.
