First off, there’s a big issue with my brother because he has had gambling problems in the past, and still does gamble at times. He has lost a lot of money , and has stolen money from my dad. He has gotten better since all of that, but he still is not getting his life together. He wants everything to come easy to him, and won’t work the hard way. He wants my dad to open him up a busines, and my dad will (not now), but only once he sees that he is working hard and saving his money. My sisters, mother, and father are all helping him. He has cousins and uncles who all are willing to help, as well. But, he does not admit or accept any help. He wants things to come the easy way, and it’s just hard on all of us (the immediate family). Please pray for my brother… Also, I am 27 years old, and I don’t have a boyfriend and I want to get married, but I don’t know if I ever will because I am getting older. I am going to be honest, I would love to make my parents really happy about who I find, and I don’t want to date just anyone. I also have not found a career that’s in my field, and I am working part-time right now, but not what I want to do. I have been applying so much and I have good experience, but I just don’t seem to have any luck. It’s very frustrating. My friends all seem to be selfish and just worry about themselves, so I don’t really have them to talk to about anything, and i don’t want to burden my family with any of my concerns. I am just so worried about everything. Please pray for me and my family.

I am so worried, stressed, lonely, etc.
 
I will pray for you! 🙂 And hey, 27 is still pretty young! Plenty of time to find a great guy, get married and all that good stuff. 😉
 
Hi,

I will pray for you all in my Rosary intentions. I hope everything turns around for you all.

God bless
 
Always remember that happiness is a choice we make. We can choose to be happy or choose not to be. You have that power within to choose happiness and your faith to reinforce that choice.

Offer your stresses up to him and he will bear them. God Bless and I’ll keep you in my prayers. 👍
 
I find these two simple prayers can help a lot wih stress, you might not ‘feel’ them to be true when you say them at first, but they really do help change your perspective on stressful situations!

Lord, thy Will be done.
Jesus I trust in you.

Pray and trust in the Lord that he will bring good out of every difficult situation.

Also, if you are looking for a spouse, I think there are some good catholic dating sites out there, also, maybe if you get involved in various church ministries etc. you will find someone you could see yourself marrying.

I wish you all the best!
