Hello.
I have been unemployed for the better part of 2 years. I would first like to thank everyone on here who prays for the unemployed. There are so many of us out there now and some of our situatuons are quite desperate. I was able to work a seasonal job for a few weeks last month which helped. I was offered a job at a new business (not in my profession) making about one fifth of what I made previously but I was happy for anything. I was to start on Feb 2nd. However, I received a call this morning that the opening of the business has been delayed by a construction issue until March.
I knew on my way home from Bible study this morning that I had recieved a message from them and was worried and prayed “Jesus, I trust in you!” all the way home. When I got home, I recieved the message that the opening was delayed and just after that another message from someone wanting to interview me for a higher paying job in my profession. My interview is tomorrow at 1130AM.
So, I am asking for continued prayers for employment for me and all those who are unemployed or underemployed as well as those who are newly employed that they be successful and happy in their new jobs. Starting a new job can be very stressful as well!
Prayer for Employment:
God, our Father, I turn to you seeking your divine help and guidance as I look for suitable employment. I need your wisdom to guide my footsteps along the right path, and to lead me to find the proper things to say and do in this quest. I wish to use the gifts and talents you have given me, but I need the opportunity to do so with gainful employment. Do not abandon me, dear Father, in this search, but rather grant me this favor I seek so that I may return to you with praise and thanksgiving for your gracious assistance. Grant this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Prayer for God’s Blessing of One’s Daily Work
O Lord, my God,
Creator and Ruler of the universe,
it is Your Will that human beings accept the duty of work.
May the work I do bring growth in this life to me
and those I love and help to extend the Kingdom of Christ.
Give all persons work that draws them to You
and to each other in cheerful service.
I unite all my work with the Sacrifice of Jesus
in the Mass that it may be pleasing to You and give You
glory.
I beg Your Blessing upon all my efforts.
With Saint Joseph as my example and guide,
help me to do the work You have asked
and come to the reward You have prepared
Amen
I just noticed that the second prayer mentions Saint Joseph. I prayed before the Statue of St Joseph this morning in the church prior to Bible Study. I was praying more in general for my family and not specifically for employment but maybe he helped me
