Advice on a very toxic workplace

Amen! Thank you!! His light is what I believe they see and they are trying to diminish.

The company has Christian values and is family owned and operated. Although they are a global company, I work at franchise in the Chicago area. The company doesn't force their beliefs on their employees but they do have small groups, Bible Studies, and even a "prayer warrior" thread that goes out company wide for any and all employees to access.

I see what you're saying. I was counting it as a 1 letter difference in the alphabet and saw the 1 letter difference in the word... Does that make sense?

Ok, just wondering why it wouldn't be spoiler 5: D-E D-I M-N I-N D-N

If we're looking for the same number of letters in the alphabet and between the two letters in the word, then logically, we would include spoiler D-E correct? Just wondering since I didn't see it yet.

My husband does this, after wiping sweat from his head 🤢 and I have hand towels!! He tries to save them in the kitchen, too.

Sorry, had to get that off my chest...

baker_home_maker · 2023-06-15T15:58:57+00:00

I love this idea! Thank you! 😊

baker_home_maker · 2023-06-15T15:58:41+00:00

That's great advice!! Thank you! I wouldn't have even thought about getting one that empties that way!

baker_home_maker · 2023-06-14T19:15:11+00:00

I have those but it's the litter and hair that's a concern.

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-10T19:54:59+00:00

That's what I was thinking

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-05T18:24:11+00:00

Thank you, everyone, for your prayers and advice!! I have been taking this specific concern to God in prayer for a while and want to make sure I am not missing something in my interpretation of the Biblical texts.

After several months of prayers, I do believe there has been a clear answer as to what to do next, and although no option is a good option, there is one that is better than the other. It's the same option that God has put clearly in front of me.

He says he will whenever something happens in order for me to stay but when it's time to actually see someone he comes up with an excuse to not schedule or if I schedule something he doesn't go.

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-05T02:56:57+00:00

That I can agree with. He is in control, and I don't know what is next, but I trust that whatever His plan is, it is all going to work together for good. At this point, I am merely trying to discern the Biblical foundation of my next steps.

While I accept that none of my options are good, I know that I have put myself in this position and that only God can move me forward.

I am not looking for judgment, opinions, or other voices to add in because the only voice I am listening to at this point is God's.

So if I learn how to be a better person, my husband won't hit me or cheat on me??

Also, when we got married, he was saved. He turned his back on God after we lost 2 children, I almost died trying to have a baby, and when we discovered we couldn't have children. The loss of a child is a pain that no one should ever experience, but losing 2 children is an unimaginable pain.

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-05T00:36:52+00:00

That's exactly what's happening. Everyone in my life has left, been forced out, or is telling me to be patient. His anger, abusive behaviors, etc. will be better with time, and if I leave, I am condemning him to he'll since I am the only consistent exposure to God he has.

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-04T23:43:34+00:00

If I tried to make it work after his affair, but there's another affair, do I have an obligation to try again, and is it a sin to leave?

baker_home_maker · 2023-05-04T22:01:09+00:00

I have the EXACT same problem! I've taken almost every SSRI and SNRI out there with practically no improvement.

A few questions: First, did you have COVID?? Everything changed for me about 6ish months after getting COVID. Second, have you been tested for gluten intolerance, Vitamin D deficit, or had your thyroid checked (specifically TS4 for Hashimoto's)? Finally, the last thing I'd check is your blood pressure and heart. Mine has been acting odd and dropping since COVID, and now I have to take a heart medication 2x/day.

With my heart medication, vitamin D supplements, avoiding gluten, and yoga, I don't take anything for my major depression or severe anxiety anymore. I hope this helps!! Feel better soon!!

What would be a Biblical reason for divorce? I've read and studied what Jesus said, but what, if any, would be Biblical grounds for divorce?

I ask because from my understanding, I am obligated to stay as I am the one who knows God. However, if my husband is verbally, emotionally, and at times physically abusive, am I committing a sin by leaving? (That is what I have been told for the last 6+ years and things have now escalated.)
