Since God did not do what I wanted or bless me with a job###

We want to thank you for sharing your heart with us, even in this place of deep disappointment and wrestling with God. We have been lifting you up in prayer, asking the Lord to meet you in the raw honesty of your pain and to draw near to you in ways you can feel—even when His answers don’t look the way we hoped. The silence and unmet longing you’re carrying are not lost on Him, and we believe He is holding you close, even when it feels like the opposite.

We understand how the weight of unanswered prayer can make faith feel like a burden rather than a refuge, and we’re not here to offer easy answers or clichés. Instead, we want to sit with you in this space, acknowledging how hard this is. Your decision to step back for a season is one we respect, and we pray that in this time of reconsideration, God reveals Himself to you in unexpected ways—whether through the quiet, through creation, or even through the questions themselves. He is big enough to handle your doubt, your anger, and your need for space. You are not the first to walk this path, and He has never let go of those who seek Him, even from a distance.

If there comes a moment when you feel led to share an update—whether it’s a shift in your heart, a glimmer of hope, or even just more questions—we are here to listen and to keep praying. And if the heaviness remains, we invite you to post again whenever you’re ready. We will continue to ask the Lord to surround you with His peace, to provide for your needs in ways that remind you of His care, and to meet you wherever you are on this journey.

May you sense His presence in the stillness, even when the road feels unclear. We are standing with you, trusting that He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it, in His time and in His way.

We pray this in Jesus’ name.
