If I Would Have Quit…
I want to quit my job. This is something we have all felt, whether it was our first fast-food gig, a stressful corporate role, or maybe the job we have now. But how should we respond—suffer through for the paycheck or quit at the first sign of dissatisfaction?
There was a season when God led me to take a job I really didn’t want—roofing. I enjoyed construction, painting, and drywall, but roofing was different. It was exhausting, hot, and dangerous. Everything in me wanted to say no, but I knew God had a plan.
At work, I met my managers and coworkers, including one who stood out—a strong atheist. He was critical of faith, often silent when I shared about God, but I could tell he was listening.
I was surprised…
One day, to my surprise, he invited me to dinner. The way he said it made me laugh, like his wife had forced him to ask. But I knew God was opening a door. Over dinner, I shared my faith, and though he didn’t say much, at the end he admitted, “I’ve been an atheist most of my life, but I’ve never heard anyone talk about God like you do. You have my attention.” Later, sitting outside my house, he told me, “I want to receive Jesus. Can you pray with me?” I was shocked and honored. That night, he gave his life to Christ, and his life was completely changed.
Mission Complete!
Shortly after, God told me to put in my two weeks—the mission was complete. I thought it was just about roofing, but it was really about reaching him.
So was sweating on that hot roof worth it? Absolutely. We have to think—what does God want to do in our job? Who does He want to reach through us? If we quit too soon, we may miss the greater purpose God has planned. We must learn to wait on the Lord. Be encouraged today!
