So, the synopsis is this: I took a job that I quit and they didn't pay me; I accrued debt from that non-payment which I have managed to spread out for repayment in a managable way, but haven't been able to register my car or afford to get insurance. I got tickets and managed to spread those out, but I messed up and now my license is being suspended for 60 days (or 30?)...all this is okay, because I can get a hardship license...but I missed a ticket payment (my mismanagement of money, my fault) and haven't been able to get insurance yet or renew my license in order to get the hardship license.

I'm 500 overdrawn on my account, I've taken on 2 extra jobs in addition to my full time job (and I'm selling Avon now).

I just backed into someone in the parking lot who I didn't see and now I just know all my work to get things in line to where I can handle it is about to blow up.

I need that money from my ex-employer (which is duley owed to me).

I need a break.

I need God to take over and take care of me.

Please pray.:crossrc:

God bless you. I've sent up a prayer for you in your situation.

2 Corinthians 12:9

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.

I have been in situations when I have had to say to myself........"Only God can help me"

Your situation brings this to my mind. However God brought me through. Not without me doing my best to help myself. But me and Jesus made a good team. That was a long time ago.


But He is just the same today.........Concentrate.

Thanks all. I think it will get better, but usually it's at home with my mom when I feel so bad. She focuses only on complaining and throwing fits, even regarding things we can't change. She believes all of her feelings and thereby her reactions to those feelings are more valid then mine or anyone around her. She chooses misery over looking on the brightside and in doing so makes it rough at home. I only have a couple more weeks until things are back on the good side and then just a couple more months til i'm out of the Red...so I will continue to see that light which God has placed in front of me and know that when this struggle ends, I will be able to appreciate better the blessings He grants me.

God will come through, He always does. You said you were trying to give it up to God and that is a very good thing. Renew your mind daily with God's words and blessings. I think it's hard at forst, but God's word can send peace into your heart and mind, and it doesn't matter what happens, as long as you hold onto God's word. it takes practice, like anything else, but when you plants those seeds into your mind, you will reap the benefits.
