Hi, everyone. I have a very high pressure/high stress job that has caused me to struggle with anxiety and depression issues for the last 3 or 4 years. It ebbs and flows, but it seems to have gotten worse since my wife and I had our first child last September. I love my daughter with all of my heart and am extremely blessed to have her in my life, but I think the added pressure of fatherhood and trying to balance work and family time has at times caused me to just shut down because I can’t handle the stress of it all. I’m looking to try to find another job that isn’t as demanding that will allow me to spend more time with my family, but in the mean time I can’t afford to lose my current job, which is a possibility because of the negative impacts of the anxiety and depression.

So, if you wouldn’t mind, please pray for me that I am able to find a job that will allow me to fulfill my calling to be the best possible husband and father that I can be for my family and that in the mean time I am able to keep my anxiety and depression in check. Thank you very much, and God bless.
 
I am sorry to hear you are struggling with many issues. I hope you will see a Dr for help with anxiety and depression and you have my prayers.
Mary.

Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Your 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.
For Thine is the Kingdom
and the Power
and the Glory for ever and ever.
Amen.

Ave Maria, gratia plena,
Dominus tecum,
benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui Iesus.
Sancta Maria mater Dei,
ora pro nobis peccatoribus, nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae.
Amen

Prayer to St. Joseph for the Unemployed
O Saint Joseph, we pray to you for those who are out of work, for those who want to earn their living or support their families.

You who are the patron of workers, grant that unemployment may vanish from our ranks; that all those who are ready to work may put their strength and abilities into serving their fellowmen and earn a just salary.

You are the patron of families; do not let those who have children to support and raise lack the necessary means. Have pity on our brothers and sisters held down in unemployment and poverty because of sickness or social disorders. Help our political leaders and captains of industry find new and just solutions. May each and every one have the joy of contributing, according to his abilities, to the common prosperity by an honorable livelihood. Grant that we may all share together in the abundant goods God has given us and that we may help underprivileged countries. 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.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Praying for you… in the meantime, go see your doctor. Maybe you are depressed. I know that medication helped me cope with a LOT of life ‘issues,’ including stress. Don’t be afraid to ask others for help. God works through people and lots of people love you!

Thank you to everyone for your continued support and prayers. A Potential opportunity may be on the horizon, so prayers may be answered if it be in accord with His will and pans out. Your continued prayers are much appreciated.

:gopray2:

May the Lord bless each of you who have prayed for me in my time of need, and I pray that He will grant the intentions held in each of your hearts. I also ask our Blessed Mother and all the angels and saints to pray for us all, that we may be ever mindful of and responsive to God’s plans for our lives, so that all may be done in accord with His will.

I ask all of these things through Christ, our Lord. Amen
