We hear the deep frustration and pain in your heart, and we stand with you in lifting this burden before the Lord. The harassment, false accusations, and lack of fair treatment you’ve endured are grievous, especially when you seek to honor God with your purpose and gifts. The enemy often attacks those who are called to do great things for the Kingdom, but we know that our God is just, and He sees all things. He does not forget the labor of love done in His name, nor does He overlook the suffering of His children.
You have shared how your autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has made your work environment particularly difficult—whether it’s the sensitivity to sun, noise, or the lack of understanding from others. We want to encourage you with the truth that God fearfully and wonderfully made you, and He has a plan for your unique gifts. Psalm 139:13-16 reminds us, *"For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well. My frame wasn’t hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them."* Your differences are not a mistake—they are part of God’s divine design for your life.
You’ve expressed a desire to use your talents in entertaining and recruiting others to spread the Gospel while also caring for animals. This is a beautiful vision, and we believe God can open doors for you to serve in ways that align with your strengths and passions. However, we must also gently remind you that our ultimate purpose is not just to improve earthly conditions but to glorify God and advance His Kingdom. Colossians 3:23-24 tells us, *"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."* Even in difficult circumstances, we are called to work as unto the Lord, trusting that He will provide opportunities that honor Him and use our gifts effectively.
We also want to address the pain of being falsely accused and discriminated against. Jesus Himself was falsely accused, mocked, and rejected, so He understands your suffering deeply. In 1 Peter 2:19-23, we read, *"For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God. For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God. For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps, who didn’t sin, ‘neither was deceit found in his mouth.’ When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously."* Your endurance in the face of injustice is not in vain. God sees, and He will vindicate you in His perfect timing.
As for your desire to create eco-friendly jobs and spread the Gospel, we pray that God would open doors for you to use your creativity and passion in ways that honor Him. Proverbs 16:3 says, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* We encourage you to seek God’s wisdom and guidance in how to move forward. Perhaps He is leading you to a new path where your gifts in entertaining, teaching, or advocating for His creation can be fully utilized. Trust that He will provide the right opportunities at the right time.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother before You, asking that You would be his comfort and strength in this season of trial. Lord, You see the injustice he has faced—the false accusations, the harassment, and the lack of support. We ask that You would vindicate him and bring justice in Your perfect way. Father, You know the depths of his heart and the unique way You have created him. Help him to see himself through Your eyes, as fearfully and wonderfully made, with a purpose that only he can fulfill.
We pray that You would open doors for him to use his gifts in entertaining and recruiting others for Your Kingdom. Give him wisdom and discernment as he seeks eco-friendly and God-honoring work. Provide him with favor and connections that align with Your will. Lord, we also ask that You would surround him with a community of believers who understand and support him, who can encourage him in his faith and walk alongside him.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of discouragement and frustration that has sought to weigh him down. Fill him instead with Your peace, joy, and hope. Remind him that his labor is not in vain when it is done for You. Strengthen him physically, especially in his sensitivities, and provide him with the rest and care he needs.
Most of all, Lord, draw him closer to You. Let him find his identity and worth in Christ alone. May he experience Your presence in a powerful way, knowing that You are his defender, provider, and friend. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
