Hate Your Job? Do These 4 ThingsSampl

Maintain a Thankful Heart

It’s easy to dwell on the negative. It’s easy to talk about how bad your job, boss, or coworkers are. But does that ever really help?

During my dark season, I found help in 1 Thessalonians 5:18: “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” I took this verse to heart and began to thank God on a daily basis.

God, thank You that I’m not standing in the unemployment line.

God, thanks for my car to get to work.

God, thanks for keeping my car from being broken into.

I would seriously look for anything I could be thankful for. And it changed my entire attitude.

Maintaining a thankful heart and choosing to see the positive in very negative circumstances is incredibly challenging, but I’m convinced that this was one of the primary reasons I was able to stick it out.

If you are in that season, keep fighting to maintain a thankful heart.
