  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Lost my job

Hi all.

I have just lost my job of 20 years. I am in a desperate spot now. I live alone and dont have any family who can support me and I wont be able to pay my bills for long.

I feel like I dont have any hope of getting a job. Our covid 19 lockdown means we are forbidden from even going out to look for a new job, with no signs of it lifting here anytime soon And with our unemployment rate now close to 50% I don't have much hope that I will find new work in the next year, if ever.

I dont know what to do. I feel like God hates me and is gettingbHis revenge on me. I am going to end up on the street and starve to death.

I dont gave any right to ask, but please pray for me for some miracle that I will get a job. I dont know what else to do. Maybe God will hear you and have mercy on this worthless waste of a human.

Thanks all.

Whenever I come across people like you, who say EXACTLY this, I usually bump into them a year later after they've achieved stratospheric success. Desperation creates hunger, and hunger leads to the drive to be more successful than you have EVER been.

Don't ever lose faith. God will absolutely come through for you, just make sure that you start a day-to-day plan of action, and keep a cool head.

Have you tried www.Monster.com, www.glassdoor.com, www.ziprecruiter.com to find a job? I am a member of these and all I did was with the first and third link upload my resume and the second link put in what type of job I was looking for and I get more emails than anything and there are jobs a plenty. Don't give up hope and no God does not get revenge on you, He is not that way God is love, period. Don't give up and praying for you.

Sorry for this all happening to you. Praying God will make it work for your good (Romans 8:28), and give you the faith to to get through all this. Also to meet your financial needs, and a new job. In Jesus name, Amen.

Hello tripleseven. God has not abandoned you. He has a plan and a purpose for you.

"Can a woman forget her nursing child, or lack compassion for the son of her womb? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!" (Isaiah 49:15)

You can see by the number of people praying for you here that the family of God is rooting for you too.

Don't give up hope, things will turn. God Bless :)

Sorry to hear. Heavenly Father, I ask for Your loving mercy, and that You would make a way where the road seems dim. I pray asking that You will lead this one back to their job or to another that will be enough to support them, Thank You Father, In Jesus Name, Amen
