Hello, I didn’t know where else to post this. I just recently got laid off my job and we have a lot of bills, and I’m not doing too well physically and I sure would appreciate your prayers. I am very scared, I’ve never been laid off before, and I recently became Catholic this spring. I’m trying not to get discouraged, but it’s hard. I go to Mass every morning and on Sun. too, and I just feel bummed and angry. This lay off was not my fault, it was others’ that made mistakes and hurt the funding at my work which we all rely on to stay employed. I help the poor in my work and I love it. I am very lucky to do this and get paid for it. So if someone could post back with some encouragement and some prayers, I’d be ever so grateful!😉
Thank-you and God bless,
Sue
 
You will have my prayers – a novena to St. Joseph, patron of workers. Try not to be discouraged. All good things work out for good for those who love God! :gopray:

Yes, I will pray for you. Watch out, because it works!

Also remember, God’s will be done. Find the the value in your experience and grow from it and walk through it with God. If you love Him, then I’m sure He has something even better in store for you - so rejoice!

I am also out of work, and I have made a bit of progress with my own company, but now I seek work again. I do not fear.
 
You’ve got prayers coming from me, too, Sue.

Keep up your prayer life, don’t lose contact with friends and associates and start sending out those applications. Let people know that you are looking for work.

Scrappy,

Don’t get discouraged…look at it as a test. I know very well what you are going through and I will put you on my prayer list. God Bless and keep you. Annunciata:)
 
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on Scrappy, her family, and the given situation. You say what we ask in your name will be granted unto us. Abba, we ask in the mighty name of your Son Jesus that you put their lives in your order. Lord, you are doing a mighty work here, provide the grace necessary to stand through these times, that when all is said and done, an awesome witness will be given to the power of your truths. Come Lord Jesus open the door to proper employment for her and the family. All for your honor and glory.

Our Lady of Suprises, in the abundance of Christ’s tender mercy and joy of your Son, intercede for her that all of their needs might be met.

Amen!
 
Wow. Panirose, that was an awesome prayer. I don’t know what to say. I have never ever asked for anyone to pray for me, I always thought it was selfish. I know there are people with much worse problems to deal with, and I pray for them. Thank-you all so very much, I am touched by the love I read on these posts. I will not soon forget. I felt overwhelmed by your prayer, Panirose. God bless you all. May the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with us all.

Love,
Sue:blessyou:
 
I will certainly include you in my prayers. If it is any encouragement, I once got fired from a job and it ended up being a real blessing. It took me nearly a month to get another one and my situation was much much better. I cannot promise that you will get another job as quickly but I will certainly pray for it. Hang in there and remember that God is there supporting you the most when you feel it the least. 🙂

AMEN!!!

Scrappy, it is not selfish to ask others to pray for you. That’s what we’re here for. We ALL need each other’s prayers. I’ll include you in my Friday adoration hour.

Just said a prayer for you to St. Joseph and our Blessed Mother. Hang in there!
 
scrappy,

Remember that not a bird falls from the sky that God doesn’ t know about. God will certainly take care of you if you act in love always.

You picked your screen name for a good reason. Now live up to it.

Blessings,

I will pray for you, too. We went through a similar ordeal about three years ago. Be patient. Hang in there. Keep us posted.
 
Lord sustain scrappy in this time of trial. Grant that his needs will be taken care of through Jesus Our Lord Amen

Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be
done, on earth as it is in heaven Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our
trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil. Amen

Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee
blessed art thou among women and
blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus
Holy Mary mother of God pray for us
sinners now and at the hour of our death
Amen.

Glory Be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning is now ever shall be world without end Amen

I would like some advise. I don’t know how to handle this.

You will be in my rosary intentions today, God bless. 🙂
 
May the Lord help you find a great job soon.

This forum should have a help-wanted, jobs needed forum… it could match up folks who need a job with folks who need help and a re willing to pay for it.

I offend God a lot. But l consider that many other people do as well even among the most tender of devotion. We have a journey and there are signposts on the way. You will encounter a number of them. Consider Mary as an individual, love her, I purpose that to you. She implants the love of Jesus, and recourse to her womb is a treasure that she gives to few individuals. I offend God a lot. And if you can convice people that you are a sinner when they flatter you good for you that you do. It is not easy but with this suffering you might obtain examples in which you can tell people that I am a sinner in the moments when they flatter you. Consider the confidence of Mary when the mother of John the Baptist said, “And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” (Lk 1:43) You and I should beg for wisdom for it is the best thing to beg for - “Every best gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration.” (Jas 1:17)
