I am reaching out to ask for your prayers as I try to rebuild my life after a very difficult year. I have faced the pain of broken relationships, financial hardship, and even a time of homelessness.
At the moment, I have no income, though I do receive food stamps, and I am grateful to have stable housing through a subsidized apartment. I am waiting to hear back about SSI benefits I reapplied for, but I am uncertain whether I should focus on that or try to reenter the workforce, which is difficult in my small town without a car.
I am also in a committed relationship that means a great deal to me. Although we have been through many trials and challenges, I have never met someone who understands me and loves me the way he does. I feel very strongly about building a life with him, even though the road has not been easy.
Since going through all of this, I have often felt lost, confused, and at times hopeless about the future, as if the obstacles before me are insurmountable. Yet, I am doing my best to remain faithful and to follow God’s will.
Please pray for me—for strength, healing, mental health, and clarity. Please also pray that the resources I need may become available, whether through a person to guide me, a loan, or some other form of help, so that I can begin rebuilding my life with hope.
Thank you for your prayers. You will be in mine as well.
