A good friend of mine unexpectantly lost his dad in a motorcycle accident yesterday. My friend is 21 years old. He is not a believer. He knows I am a believer, and never argues or debates my faith. He has several times mentioned that he thinks its good I do believe. I have tried to bring him...

Doctors say they see reasons to leave them alone and reasons to make second attempt to get the stone removed. Doctor said not sure which way he would choose if it was his health.

I have a medical issue (kidney stone) which is not bothering me at this time. On August 6th the Doctors attempted to resolve the problem, but were unsuccessful. I am still not in any pain and have a 2nd attempt scheduled for October 1st. Just not sure I should go through with it. I have been in...

Currently have a 7mm stone in my right kidney. Numerous CT scans show the stone. This stone is not causing any pain or bad symptoms at this time. Few weeks ago went through laser ureteroscopy, and Doctor was unable to reach the stone. That same night had bladder urine retention where I was...

A follow up to the original post. My friend has not returned to church. Unfortunately my work schedule is going to change, meaning I won't be going on my friend's free night. I honestly don't predict him going if I am not there. Besides praying, not sure what else I can do.

Yes, I am totally ok with making less money. Money doesn't make me happy. A rewarding job where I can help people and have ability to grow within a company are priorities to me. Close to home is a big plus for me too. I am currently in Cobb County Georgia. My linkedin is below...

At this time, I am working as much overtime as I can. I have considered going back to school or doing online classes. My background is IT. In February I worked 19 days straight. Looks like I may do another 19 before the contract ends. I will also look into courser.org.

My job of 16 years is going away in the next month or so. I have been looking here in the Atlanta area. I am 46 years old, so changing careers is very scary, but I am college educated and do learn new roles quickly. I am praying that God provides me with patience to wait for His timing. Also...

I am 46 years old. The good job I have had for 16 years is going to go away in the next month or so. I am struggling on what to do. I do have a four year degree in Criminal Justice, but most agencies aren't interested in incoming 46 year olds. I am not really interested in Law Enforcement...

Have a friend whom I have known for over three years. Been trying to get him to church but he always had an excuse. Been praying for God to cause him to have a desire to come to church. Finally on March 2nd, he joined me at church. He also joined me the following night on March 3rd. I now pray...

I am requesting prayers. I am going through some difficult times in locating a job here in the Atlanta area. I also have a medical issue that has exposed itself. I have been praying and maintain a strong faith in God's timing. I am also understanding in that His timing may not be the same as...

Thanks, all prayers are welcome. This time of uncertainity is somewhat scarey, but I know God has a plan for me. Things will eventually work out.

Found out today, that the interview I had in November was unsuccessful. Still maintaining strong faith that God has a plan. So yep, still looking for a job in the Atlanta (NW area).

I do have a LinkedIn. While I don't know a lot of people, I have been speaking to the ones I do know. Nothing really happening on the job front though. I am looking for something entry level in IT or working in an office type environment. Really I am pretty open. I live in NW Atlanta area...

Thanks for all of the replies and kind words. I am in my mid 40s and college educated. It is scary being in mid 40s and not knowing what to do jobwise. The men's group at our church and various family and friends have been praying for me. I know something positive will eventually happen. I worry...
