How Tell Everybody to Not Ask

[Smuelxira]

Dear Lord Jesus, I get a lot of questions about working at the ### and I do not like to talk about. I do have text groups that I’m a part of it at church. I would really really really like it. People talk to me about the ### my parents ### do they can ask them. Wish I could show them a clip of ### and ### dog. A few episodes he comes back home hurt or gone insane. One episode is multiple.###. Just sent an institution. It’s really able to the time. I had to see a bunch of ugly girls in bikinis. Text group chat for work. And most of them are atheist and mean people. They should’ve gone to jail at least one sending it. There’s another clip where ### is hurt and this job Substitute. That’s what I’m doing for a coworker. I also feel like ### too because I’m being a dick by the sun. Please give me a way just not ask. If you’re having a lot of drama doing being harassed i don’t like to talk about my job. So please help. In Jesus Name Amen.

We hear your frustration and exhaustion, dear brother or sister in Christ. It’s clear that the questions about your workplace are weighing heavily on you, and the environment you’re describing sounds deeply troubling, both emotionally and spiritually. You are not alone in this struggle, and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God’s wisdom and peace for you.

First, we must address the spiritual concerns in your request. The mention of "atheist and mean people" in your workplace, along with the exposure to ungodly content (such as the reference to "ugly girls in bikinis"), is a serious matter. Scripture warns us about the influence of ungodly company: "Do not be deceived: ‘Bad company corrupts good morals’" (1 Corinthians 15:33). If your workplace environment is exposing you to sinful influences or harassment, we must pray for your protection and discernment. God calls us to be in the world but not of it (John 17:14-16), and if your job is causing you to stumble spiritually or emotionally, it may be time to seek His guidance about whether this is where He wants you to remain.

You also mentioned feeling like you’re "being a dick by the sun," which suggests guilt or frustration over how you’ve responded to others. We all fall short at times, but God’s grace is sufficient for you (2 Corinthians 12:9). If you’ve reacted in anger or unkindness, confess it to the Lord, and He is faithful to forgive (1 John 1:9). However, we also encourage you to set healthy boundaries in love. Jesus Himself withdrew from crowds when He needed rest (Mark 6:31-32), and you have the right to do the same.

Now, regarding your desire to stop the questions about your job: You can address this with gentleness and firmness. Proverbs 15:1 says, "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." You might say something like, "I appreciate your interest, but I’d rather not discuss my job. It’s a difficult environment for me, and I’d prefer to focus on more uplifting topics." If people persist, you have the right to politely but firmly repeat your boundary. If they continue to press, it may be a sign that they are not respecting your needs, and you may need to limit your interactions with them.

We must also address the deeper issue here: the harassment and ungodly behavior you’re describing. If you’re being exposed to inappropriate content or treated poorly at work, this is not something to endure silently. Scripture calls us to stand against injustice (Micah 6:8) and to protect our hearts (Proverbs 4:23). If your workplace is toxic, we encourage you to seek godly counsel, perhaps from a pastor or trusted Christian mentor, about how to navigate this. You may need to explore other job opportunities where you can work in peace and honor God.

Let us pray for you now:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister who is struggling with the weight of their workplace and the questions from others. Lord, we ask that You grant them Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Give them the strength to set boundaries with gentleness and wisdom, and help them to guard their heart from the influences of this world (Proverbs 4:23). If this job is not where You want them to be, Lord, open a door for them to find a place where they can work with dignity and honor You. Protect their mind and spirit from the harassment and ungodly influences they’ve described. Help them to respond to others with grace, even when they feel frustrated or overwhelmed. We pray for their coworkers, Lord, soften their hearts and draw them to You. And if there is any unconfessed sin or guilt in our brother/sister’s heart, we ask that You cleanse them and restore their joy in You (Psalm 51:12). We trust You to lead them, guide them, and provide for them in every way. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we want to gently remind you that your identity is not in your job or in what others think of you. Your worth is found in Christ alone (Ephesians 2:10). If you’re feeling overwhelmed, we encourage you to seek fellowship with other believers who can uplift and support you. You are not alone, and God sees your struggle. Lean on Him, and He will sustain you.

We can hear how much pressure you’re under when people keep pressing you about something you’d rather leave alone. It’s exhausting to feel badgered, especially when your workplace conversations already expose you to things that unsettle your spirit. That sense of being worn down, of dreading the next question, is a heavy weight, and you’re right to want to guard your heart from what you know isn’t good for you.

A simple, calm line can do a lot of work for you ahead of time. The next time someone asks, you might try something like, “I’ve decided not to talk about work when I’m off the clock, it helps me leave it behind. My parents can fill you in if you’re curious.” That’s honest without inviting debate, and it points the conversation elsewhere without sounding defensive. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for protecting your own peace. It isn’t rude to hold a boundary; it’s wise stewardship of your own energy and focus. People who push past it are revealing something about themselves, not about you. When the text group turns ugly, silencing notifications or stepping away, even briefly, can give your mind a chance to reset rather than soak in the meanness.

We’re praying with you.

Lord Jesus, thank you that you see every pressured moment and every unwanted conversation. Give this person the right words, few and firm and kind, when the questions come, and guard their mind from the things they never should have had to see. Surround them with peace that doesn’t depend on others’ cooperation, and let them sense your steady presence in the middle of the noise. In your name, amen.

Forgive me that was a typo. I meant stuck in the sun.

 

[Spurgeon]

When the heart is sorely vexed by the questioning of men and the provocations of the ungodly, it is well that you have brought your complaint before the Lord. You would have men cease to ask about your labour, and you cry out under the weight of their harassment. This you share with that man of patience, Job, who was ground down by the speeches of his friends and the torment of his thoughts. Yet in all his grief, the record stands: “In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.” Take this to heart, when the questions fly thick as arrows, use the shield of a quiet spirit, and let the Lord be your defence.

You cannot command the tongues of others to be still, but you may ask grace to rule your own. If men press you to speak of matters that stir up your sorrow, it is no sin to answer plainly, “I seek peace, and would rather not speak of my work.” That is sufficient. You need not cast your pearls before those who would trample them. And as for the filthy images sent among your work group, those atheists and mockers show the corruption that is in their own hearts. Do not let your eyes dwell upon their lewdness. Flee from it, as Joseph fled from Potiphar’s wife. If duty compels you to remain in that group, then let your soul abhor the evil, and lift up a silent cry to God that He would keep you unspotted from the world.

But the deeper matter is not what men ask, but what God asks of you. You feel scorched by the sun of affliction, as though you were a butt for the arrows of both man and circumstance. Let this drive you to the question of questions: “Dost thou believe on the Son of God?” For if you rest upon Christ Jesus, then every trial is a furnace only to refine you. The Lord may permit these annoyances to wean you from the love of this present world, to make you long for the home where the wicked cease from troubling. He has given the light of life, even in this dark valley, that you might learn to look unto Him who is invisible.

I would haul you out of the slough of despond with this strong cord: pray for those who despitefully use you. Even for the senders of abominable pictures, pray that their eyes might be opened, for they know not what they do. Remember how Job’s captivity was turned when he prayed for his offending friends. That is the wonder-working remedy. As you intercede for your persecutors, your own spirit will be set free from bitterness, and the questions of men will lose their sting. Your peace will not depend on their silence, but on the sweet composure your soul finds in the bosom of your Saviour. Commit your cause to Him who judges righteously, and let your one great question become, “Where is God my Maker, who giveth songs in the night?” Then, though you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, neither shall the flame kindle upon you.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

 

[Chrysostom]

You wish to stop the mouths of those who pester you with questions. But such questioning is a sickness of the soul, a storm of reasonings and empty words. When the mind is healthy, it does not question; it receives the faith. So do not fuel their idle curiosity. When they ask, give a short reply or none at all, and let your silence teach them that all things must be done decently and in order. You are not required to answer every idle inquiry.

As for the vile images you were forced to see, and the company of atheists and the mean-spirited, do not let your heart be nailed to these earthly disturbances. What are they but a little smoke? Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Instead of fretting over the filth, flee to the honeycombs of the holy books, where the Spirit’s grace has stored a honey far sweeter than any on earth. Feed there continually, and the sting of such sights will lose its power. Remember, you are sent as a sheep among wolves. Show gentleness, and trust that God permits these trials for your good, though the reason escapes you. It is not for us to question the Master’s plan; our part is to obey, not to be overcurious.

Do not be surprised that the world is full of those who have gone mad with excess, worse than beasts who know their limits. They will be carried off by death as a thief in the night, while they sleep in their sins. But you, keep your garment unstained, and fear only the uncertainty of that hour. If you must work among them, do it without complaint, as the apostle says, and do not let their poison into your soul. The sun that scorches you today is nothing compared to the eternal fire. So endure, and let your patience preach more loudly than any word.

 

[Silas]

I hear the weight of what you’re carrying. When the questions keep coming and you just want to be left alone, that kind of pressure can feel suffocating. It’s like everyone has an opinion or a probe into something you never asked to broadcast, and their words only add to the ache.

Job knew what it was to be surrounded by people who thought they had the right to dissect his life. His friends showed up and immediately began pressing him for answers, filling his grief with accusations dressed as concern. They spoke about things they couldn’t possibly understand, and their comfort turned into harassment. Job finally cried out that they were miserable comforters. They had built a story around him that wasn’t true, and no amount of protesting his innocence quieted them. You’re not wrong to long for the same relief: for people to simply stop digging.

You don’t owe them a window into a world you didn’t choose. It is not deceit to set a gentle but firm boundary. A simple “I’d rather not talk about work right now” is honest, and it guards your heart without inviting more debate. Some may not respect that, just as Job’s friends refused to let go. But you aren’t responsible to satisfy every curiosity or to defend yourself to those who won’t hear you.

Remember that Jesus sees what others miss. When Job was misunderstood and his own friends failed him, his deepest cry was for a mediator, someone who could stand between him and God, who could lay a hand on both. We have that Mediator now. Jesus knows the full story behind every clip, every message, every moment that makes you cringe. He doesn’t need an explanation, and He doesn’t misunderstand you. Bring Him the raw edge of your frustration, even when you feel foolish or stained by what you’ve been exposed to.

Your workplace in no way defines your worth before God. Job lost everything and still refused to curse Him, not because he had tidy answers, but because his trust was anchored somewhere deeper. You are not a hypocrite for wanting to keep a hard season private. You are a person in need of grace, and grace is what Christ gives.

Keep your prayer simple, as you have: ask Him for wisdom to deflect the questions with peace, and for the strength to release the bitterness. He may not silence every voice around you, but He can quiet your spirit so the drama outside doesn’t control your inside. And when the questions do come, let them roll off you with less power than you think they have. You’re not the sum of what others assume. You’re known, truly known, by the One who answers what Job could only ask.
