Is this the sign

I am not feeling well since yesterday. I have this negative feeling that gets even worse just this moment. I thought I was over it this morning but I am wrong. My husband has a work related problem and we are working in the same company. There's this problem that keeps him upset and so do me. We can't do something about it because first my husband should not be the one responsible for it. But since he is in the middle, as usual he's the one that is being bumped in between. Early this year we were contemplating about looking for another work. We are serving the company for about 1o years now but still they don't seem to care about what we already contributed to the company. I know there are high paying jobs out there. I just love my work that's why I'm still here but since yesterday, I am down and I can't work the way before. I am thinking if this is already a sign that I must look for another job. A company who will value our works. I am praying God will lead me the way. I believe and trust Him. I know we can make it and it's for the better.

God will not make things miserable to both you and your husband if you really believe in Him. Let go the feeling of despair and anxiety and be at rest. Start looking for new job and thank God for He's so good. Trust me, He will lead you to a better life as long as you ask Him and have a positive expectation.
Just so you know my fellow believer that always thank Him for what He has done instead of asking Him for help in your prayer for He already knows what you are about to pray. By thanking Him shows your belief in His good work and plans in store for you.
God wants His children to always remember Him not the pain they going through for He has taken out our pain through His begotten Son, Jesus Christ, who went to the cross so that our sins could be redeemed!! Always look to the cross and you will find the answer. It may not be instant but know that His plan is A PERFECT PLAN!

Hi Shy, it is pity to hear that you and your husband are having problem in the workplace. If you felt this current job not really worth to keep and continue, you can start to look for another better offer. Who knows if you are lucky, able to come across a much better workplace and offer. Just pray more and look to the positive side of life. Good luck in your search for a better job for both of you.

Yes, it is not really easy. I wanted to go on with our life. Anyway, we have an adorable son who never fail to cheer us up. He's the source of our strength right now, beside from God. I always pray for God's better plan because sure He has. Thanks a lot for the encouraging words.

I know exactly what it's like to feel unappreciated in a company, I've worked for the same place for 5 years and this past year I've really started to question my commitment to them. For the amount of time we spend at work, it's important to feel good about it. I wish you and your husband luck in whatever comes of this situation.

Sometimes, this companies only think of their profits alone. They forget that without dedicated and hardworking people working for their company they will go nowhere. We have done many sacrifices here and I feel its too much now. We really need to find a better place, a better opportunity. But we should think about it carefully as we have a child that depends on us. Thanks for the response.

Hi... I don't know how deep the problem is, but I have a question... Are you gonna run away? Do you think, you can run from problems? No my friend... It is easy to say, I know. Face the facts. You've worked there for 10 long years... You're valuable to the company. And you need to make them understand this... If you behave like you're in need, then they'll just use you... Leave the job, for better salary and opportunities; not because of an EX... Take care... And Good Luck to both of you!

No no we are not planning to run away. If we want it to do then we should have done it months ago. Much about salary and better opportunities, we value how we love and enjoy our work. But since yesterday I am not feeling good in here. Maybe it's because things aren't okay yet. But let see after weeks and the feeling is still the same. That's the time we will decide whether to find a better job that we will enjoy and we will be valued for. Thanks for the response.

May God give you enlightenment, there are also times i feel this way too shylade and i know how you feel. That feeling where you know you have done your part yet people on tops seems like they do not know you did it and why others are easily recognized..and like you i have been in my company for 5 years now and the reason i am staying too is i love what i do here, i get to help people somehow and the pay is really really good.. it keeps food on the table and i get to give what my kids needs..
if you really think its about time to leave, pray for it first and find an alternate job. pray and somehow i have been praying for a sign if its about time for me as well but i have not seen it yet...and thats why i am still here.. and still doing the best i could.

Hi there! It's pretty hard to accept. All I know right now is that I trust God and He has a better plan for us. I know through Him I will find the desire of my heart. Only now that I realize, I must take the risk of finding a work at home job. I know I am getting there. Thank you for the encouraging words.

I think that it is impossible to avoid problems. Once in a while, we will experience difficulties whether it has something to do with our personal lives or with our work. It is a good thing that despite all these, you still trust and believe in God. I am just confused why you have to worry about the problem you mentioned if your husband shouldn't be the one responsible for it. I think that it is kind of unfair to shoulder other people's problem especially that both of you are being affected. You can help them but you don't have to carry all the load. About thinking of leaving your job, try to find a new job first before leaving. I have seen many people do that because they cannot afford to be unemployed even for a short period of time.

Oh oh! This sounds really terrible. I haven't ever been in a company job, but I can understand that after serving in a company for 10 long years how one feels being held responsible for something they haven't been part of. I think that yes, one should work in a company which values its employee's work and efforts, and trust its employees. Hope you and your husband make it through and may everything turns out to be in your favor!

God wants us to be happy. And if you feel that it's time to find a new job then go ahead ask for his grace and make him help you decide. Pray to God and ask for his guidance because he knows all the things.

Continue praying for guidance that you will make the right decision. And if you finally decided to leave, do not leave both at the same time and do not leave without having another work that is ready to accept you. At this time, jobs are few while many are looking for one. You and your husband are still lucky that you still have work, despite everything.
Good luck!
