Don’t know what God wants despite constant prayer.

Feeling like God really opened the door for me to come into MBB. I am an EH senior associate without the typical prestigious background (no MBA, state school undergrad, tech implementation background).

However, the second I got here my life has been awful. Dealt severely with long covid, had a highly abusive manager for my new hire pairing, couldn’t get staffed for months, and then was left to rot in the next case. Likely to be fired soon

Stay strong. We are all going through challenges. I woke up at midnight last night and couldn’t sleep due the many things going on at work.
I am choosing to pray and trust him for he is good

Lifting you up in prayer 🙏🏽

The constant prayer is so good (Philippians 4:6–7; 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18)—don’t lose heart! God’s dealings in life can come in unexpected and even un-understandable ways. Job’s suffering, for instance, had a cause that Job and his friends never knew about (God allowing Satan to afflict him).

But God does reassure His people with some beautiful promises:
• Suffering for believers is meaningful and is specially brought to their lives to perfect them (Hebrews 12:6; James 1:2–4)
• God works all things for good for those who love Him to be confirmed to His image (Roman’s 8:28–29)

What does God want from you?
• 1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 Joy, prayer, gratitude
• Romans 8:29 To be conformed to the image of His Son (this is often painful but always good)
• Deuteronomy 10:12–13 To love Him with all your being and to obey His commands

Stay positive, the bible reading I got today morning was God tests those he loves the most soon and often - but he always protects them! This is another test and you will definitely come out on top!

God will not give you anything that keeps you from him.. not even a job. Psalms 53:2. Society will have us thinking these things are blessings but they really are distractions.

Sounds like God is showing you it’s not what’s actually important.

OP checking in you. Please give us an update. We will continue to pray with you

I’ll know more over the next couple days, performance review for a lot of the Q1 starts is this week.

Right now I’m just praying, trying to remind myself that it’s better to be a servant for the Lord than a king of the world.

Does it ever make you wonder why we have so many man made sects/denominations of christianity?

They are all denominations of sects that started with a man/woman disagreeing with an original church (e.g whether it be Catholic or Orthodox).

I mean we have Jehovahs witness, baptist, Anabaptist, Evangelical, independent, pentecostal, lutheran and the list goes on and on and on.

Its either God says only one is right and the rest were teaching false religions or we all go to heaven.
