Hello I am new to this forum. Over 10 years ago I made a mistake at work because I was young and stupid. I lost my job over this and things have gone down hill since. I tried to get a job and doors slammed in my face over and over again. At first it was my advanced degree then finally I got a job setting up a school with the promise that if the school became a reality I would have a fulltime job. Well, the school opened and I was given a job that I loved. I was the Curriculum Coordinator. I worked hard to write the schools curriculum and get it approved by the state. A few weeks in I was demoted to teacher's assistant. I was still required to do the job of a curriculum coordinator at half the pay. On the day they got word my curriculum had been approved I was let go half and hour later. I felt God did not love me and that I was nothing more than a court jester for him to laugh at. It took me a long time to get over that feeling. I kept trying to get a job. I went to Career Link for help and went back to school. I worked so hard to not only graduate but to graduate with honors. I was treated very poorly by many at the college because I was an adult who was very involved with the college. I brought my parents to events which made some of them treat me even worse than before. The events were open to family members of students. At one event I was put behind a pole with my mother with at least 50 empty seats between us and the rest of the college students and their families. I finally did it. When graduation came I was not given my leadership pin although I was president of two clubs by this same woman who though I did not belong. I was told I could not have a cord because my degree was a certificate. But one of my professors recommended me for the IMA Honor Society and I was accepted. Therefore, I was able to wear an honor cord from the IMA to graduation. I graduated with a 3.93. Even when I was in college I went to almost all of the networking events. I was the only college student there but I went and I networked. Then I graduated. I applied for jobs. My dream job is to work for the government in fraud but I was willing to accept any accounting job. I took the civil service test. I applied to government jobs and private sector jobs. I had three interviews with the department of Revenue. The last one was in October. Yesterday, I got my third rejection letter form the Department of Revenue. The job was given to someone else again. I have not been granted any interviews outside of the government. I graduated in May of 2016 and still no job. I am told God has a plan for me. My mother says maybe God's plan is for you to teach well I hated teaching. I did apply for many teaching jobs after I lost my teaching job but due to my master's degree I could not get anything until the curriculum coordinator job and I already told you how that turned out. I am told time and time again that how people get their jobs now is who you know well NO ONE will help me. I was even promised by one person that they would get me into the airport. The asked me if I was willing to do a audit job and a cashier job. I said yes. Then NOTHING. They DID NOT help me. I once again believe that God does not love me. I believe I am a court jester here for his amusement. My mother says my heart is black because I want nothing to do with my brother. I am kind to him and courteous but after my parents are no longer here. I want nothing to do with him. He has treated me terribly my entire life. My I was 14 he put a knife to my throat and threatened me. This is just one of many things. I do not hate him I just want nothing to do with him. So no I do not have a black heart. My priest says you do not have to keep getting hurt by someone. You just have to not hate them which is where I am. I am even giving my parents two tickets I won because she wants to bring them to this place and I have 5 tickets. So Her and his wife have been invited to go with us to a hockey game and the Turkey Hill Experience in January. Now if I hated him as my mother claims I wouldn't give up two of my tickets to the Turkey Hill Experience for him. My mother says I am doing something wrong and that is why I am not getting a job. I had the best interview of my life in October and no job. That is why I am positive God does not Love me and hew is just laughing at me. Thank you for listening.

Are you seeking his kingdom first? Long before you take action? Remember that God can see the future and how things will play out for us, sometimes he says no based on his foreknowledge. Faith isn't a "feeling" its an action we take and attitude we have towards God no matter what happens in life. Gods love towards you isn't measured in the amount of things he gives us but that he will provide all of our needs.

Read this once a day for 30 days: Helps to emotional stability

Write out a gratitude list for the things you are grateful for today and stop focusing on the things you "didn't" get.

Example, here's mine for today.
1. what Jesus did on the cross
2. A roof over my head
3. soap and hot water
4.The clothes on my back
5.Healthy children
6. Truth in a fallen world
7. His grace because I am a wretch.
8. See where I am going here?

Hi Tux, welcome to CF. It sounds like you've had a really rough time of things. I don't know much about college and degrees but I do know that God doesn't make people suffer and then laugh at them. I know that He loves you. I hope you can find some fellowship here that helps you come closer to God and feel His love for you again :twohearts:
