Dear Friends,
I am asking if it is possible you can pray for me? My life has been really difficult lately and I am feeling really hopeless about everything.
1.) I tried for an AMAZING job that would fix all my current financial issues plus give me insurance about 3 weeks ago. I haven't heard anything since. I spoke with the HR manager a week ago and she told me I was still being considered with a few other candidates but that is all I have heard. In the mean time, I've been trying for other positions but none have come close to being as good as the one I interviewed for. I have not been offered any other interviews for any serious jobs and so I am still holding out to the mustard seed of hope that I will be blessed seriously with this position. I would praise and thank Him so much and I would let everyone of this wonderful blessing he has done. I just am starting to worry that I won't get it after all this.
2.) I lost some family and friends of family in the last weeks and I don't know why we keep losing loved ones.
3.) I have been struggling to understand why I was sick and lost my job when I prayed so hard to not be sick and lose my job in October. I begged and pleaded with God that I would not lose it. I got doctor notes and I got medicines and dragged myself sick into work. Then, my boss wrote me an email and told me to stay home and get better. When I got back to work, she was done with me.
4.) I am trying to understand why my mom is sick and getting worse and it seems like no matter how much I try to help and pray and everything it seems that it is slowly sliding down a steep hill. I want her to get better.
5.) I can't seem to make money in the mean while that I am looking for a job. I keep trying to sell things on my little online shop but no one is really buying anything and it is costing more to list each item for 20 cents than it is worth since I am not actually selling anything I am making. This shop used to be my sole income so I am used to it making some money. It just seems that life these days is so complicated and frustrating and I am feeling useless.
I have been trying to keep a "can do" attitude through all of this. I have tried to work hard and use my time available during the day to do good for others. I have been trying to dedicate time and efforts to have God understand I am serious in my requests and I know that God can answer in "no" but it's very frustrating to keep being told "no" or "wait". I am faithful in knowing he knows what is best for me in the end. But the human side of me is sick and tired of it and sad and frustrated. I know I have no right to feel this way, but it's honestly how I feel.
Please pray God will bless my life and my family's life. Help him to guide my steps and open doors for me. Pray that I will have this job and that it is His will for me. Please pray that I and my family will stay well and that we will continue to get stronger. Please pray that each day he will continue to strengthen my steps and help me to love others deeply.
Thank you for your prayers. If you reply to my post saying you will pray for me and you have a prayer you need of your own, post it and let me know and I will be happy to pray for you.
