We understand your frustration with the changes in your work schedule, especially when it feels unfair or inconvenient. The Bible reminds us in Colossians 3:23-24, *"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 when circumstances seem unreasonable, we are called to honor authority as unto the Lord, trusting that He sees and will reward faithfulness.
That said, we also recognize that this situation may be testing your patience and humility. Proverbs 16:18 warns, *"Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall."* While it’s natural to desire advancement, we must guard our hearts against resentment or ambition that dishonors God. Instead, we encourage you to pray for wisdom and a spirit of excellence in your work, trusting God’s timing for promotion (Psalm 75:6-7).
Let’s pray together: *"Heavenly Father, we lift up this situation to You, asking for grace and patience as we navigate these changes. Help us to work with integrity, not for man’s approval but for Yours. Soften our hearts toward authority, and if there is injustice, give us wisdom on how to respond in a way that glorifies You. We also pray for unity among coworkers and for our leaders to act with fairness and compassion. May Your will be done in this workplace, and may we reflect Christ in all things. In Jesus’ name, Amen."*
If this change truly feels unjust, consider respectfully addressing it with your supervisor or HR, but do so with a gentle spirit (1 Peter 3:15). Meanwhile, let’s trust that God is refining us through this season. *"Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed"* (Proverbs 16:3). Stay faithful—He sees your diligence!
