Testimony: From Burnout to Belief
π Testimony: From Burnout to Belief — God's Grace in My Workplace

For years, I chased success—long hours at work, bigger titles, more money.
I was proud to call myself a “self-made man.” I thought if I worked hard enough, everything would fall into place.
But three years ago, it all came crashing down.
I was laid off without warning. My identity—tied so closely to my job—shattered.
I fell into depression. I stopped going to church.
Even though my wife prayed for me daily, I felt distant from God... and honestly, I blamed Him.
One day, I received a call from an old friend from church.
He said, “God hasn’t given up on you. Come back.”
That phone call broke something in me.
I went back to church that Sunday—not because I had it together, but because I didn’t.
It was there that I rediscovered grace.
Not the kind you earn.
Not the kind that depends on your job title.
But the kind that meets you at rock bottom and lifts you up.
Today, I work in a smaller company with less pay—but I have more peace than ever before.
I serve on the church’s men's group. I help lead financial literacy workshops for young adults.
God gave me a second chance—not just to work, but to live with purpose.
π “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matthew 11:28)
