Am feeling very hopeless and am feeling cheated and am feeling like a total loser.Am not able to advance in my Career. My faith is weakening, i cant believe God still loves me or hears my prayers. Can anyone pls tell me something encouraging so that my faith will be strengthened and i will be able to pray, please Pray for me too
 
Whenever I feel down, I turn to the Lord for comfort and guidance. Last time I was complaining, He put me in a place where I serve people who are less fortunate than I am, people needing help to purchase bus ticket, help with getting their utilities from being shut off, help from being evicted, and the list goes on. Being around d them made me realized how blessed I am with a roof over my head, a car, a stable job, and good health. Doing charity work might help you find meaning to your life.

“What you do for the least of your brothers and sisters, you do unto me.”
 
Praying hard for you to find happiness and peace of mind. God loves you.
 
Praying to the Holy Spirit to give you guidance, direction, strength, fortitude & wisdom in your time of need.

Praying with you and for you…

*O most beautiful Flower of Mount Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, who brought forth the Son of God still remaining a Virgin, assist us in this necessity. O Star of the Sea, help us, and show us that you are our Mother.

O Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and earth, we humbly ask you from the depths of our heart to help us in this necessity. There are none who can withstand your power. O show us that you are our Mother.

O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. Sweet Mother, we place this cause in your hands. Amen*
 
If you can’t pray then just try to talk to God, tell Him how you feel and what you need. We’ll help you pray.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine 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 to find peace and happiness and grow in faith.
 
Firstly Mary, you should realize that hopelessness is not from God but from the enemy. It is not of faith. The bible says “Be anxious about nothing” . God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of love and power and a sound mind. God is in your corner. David never despaired even when he was in a deep pit. Instead he built up his faith. Build up your fath by reading and believing God’s promises. Read 3 Jn2 . This is God’s promise to you. Every promise of scripture is for the one who is willing to believe.

The short answer is that your answer is the Kingdom of God.

Dear Mary Anthony: God Our Father has given us his son to die under the most ignominious of circumstances as ransom for our sins. Our Divine Savior gave us his Mother. He loves us more than we could ever imagine. Lisa.*

Prayer to the Blessed Mother

Blessed Mother, please intercede for us.
Hold the sorrowful, strengthen the fearful,
mother and love the weary, abused, neglected
or forgotten among us,
give your aid to all needing help or healing,
assist those who are sick, in pain or suffering,
be with those needing peace,
console the lonely or brokenhearted,
comfort the lost or hopeless,
guard the unborn,
pray for those who are dying or who have died,
soften those with hardened hearts,
enlighten those who do not yet see truth,
help us be brave enough to let our hurt and anger go,
show us the way to do the right thing,
protect those who are in danger,
and guide us from every evil.
May all who keep your sacred commemoration
experience the might of your assistance.
Amen

Most Holy Apostle, St. Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honors and invokes you universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, of things almost despaired of. Pray for me, I am so helpless and alone. Make use I implore you, of the particular privilege given to you, to bring visible and speedy help where help is almost despaired of. Come to my assistance in this great need that I may receive the consolation and help of heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, and that I may praise God with you and all the elect forever. I promised, O blessed St. Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favor, to always honor you as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to you. Amen.

Hang in there. I’m praying for you. I know that talking to God and the Rosary have helped me a lot.
 
It can feel desolete at times, and God feels far away. At these times I visit God in an adoration chapel, to see His presence not just “know” it.

See and know Him and contemplate your singularly unique creation: just you, created by God for a purpse. All He wants is to lead you on the path he has created for you. Put yourself in His hands when you consider everything that happens in your life, who you want to be, where you want to be, with whom, and apart. I pray you find a mentor or spiritual director – both – to connect all that is you and was loved into existence by God, so that you grasp your potential and rely on His help as you journey down your unique and happy path.

Please know that God has ALWAYS and will always love you–that if it had only been for you, Jesus still would have died on the cross the way He did. NOTHING can stop this–not even the worst kinds of sin (I know you didn’t mention sin, but I felt inspired to write that.)

The ways of God are not our own and to paraphrase the Bible “The sun shines upon the good and the wicked and the rain falls upon them both as well.”

Of course, with my rather regular (though always very regretted and soon after repented of) mortal sins and being a former private individual Satanist, it’s very easy for me to, when suffering some unexpected pain to say to myself “It’s okay. I deserve this,” even though I know that has nothing to do with why I am experiencing it. Such a thing, if you can tell yourself and mean it though, can potentially help to feel pain in such a way that it is suffered less. It can be especially helpful during those times when God cannot be sensed. You can rest assured though, that during this life, God will NEVER leave you or forsake you. He is ALWAYS here to listen to your prayers, whether you sense Him or not so whatever you do, NEVER let a day pass without praying.

I suggest, you pray the Rosary. It should help bring you peace and help you grow in virtue, if nothing else.

Praying…
