Thinking out loud

I don't know what to say....I just need to say something. I know to put my trust in Jesus. I know that the trials that the apostles went through in the name of Jesus do not compare to my trials of today. But, it is so hard right now. I get social security disability because I lost my legs in a motorcycle accident, but it doesn't pay the bills. I get food stamps, but it doesn't cover the non-taxable items. I quit smoking over a month ago and have started back up. I can't afford to. My dad is putting $100 a month in my account to help during the summer. I have basically been living off of student loans (52 year old student here). Then I find out that I am $93 overdrawn in the bank. I am tearful, but I know that I need to trust Him. In the fall, I will graduate with a BS in psychology. I am looking at the possibility of jobs and they are wanting experience along with the degree which means that I needed to be interning somewhere and I haven't. I wish that I had been putting that money toward a Christian counseling degree instead. I don't know what is going to happen, but I have to believe that it will all come together for the good. I have $20 remaining to use on a credit card and a $15 payment is due before I get paid again by ss. I know that someone out there knows worse struggles than these, but I am feeling lonely...sorry for myself...unknowing of how I will keep my apartment (the first safe one that I've been in)...I need to sell my possessions, and I will do that. I worry about my pets, and how I will care for them. Jesus told us not to worry. I prayed for help and I am trying to simply have peace in His presence. I just needed to spill it.....Have a blessed day..and may whatever the devil meant for harm be to our blessing instead. Love :confused:
