I feel selfish for asking for prayer in a world full of sufferng, but I am indeed feeling my own suffering in my current situation. Three months ago I lost my job after 26 years with a company I was totally committed to – I was making a substantial salary and an officer of the company. I have chosen to accept that God somehow works in mysterious ways - and that my future will be bright and bountiful. I have gone back to school at the age of 52 - -and am working on my masters degree. I feel as though I have found my next calling in life – and I am filled with joy on that front. Sadly, my marriage is struggling – I have been married for 30 years, to a good man. I have been the breadwinner in my family for so long. I have taken care (in a physical sense) of my husband’s parents and then my mother – all of whom were diagnosed with terminal illnesses and then passed away. I finally feel free of the death and loss I have experienced for so long – and now I feel joy in my future. Sadly, my husband of 30 years, seems to lack interest or compassion in my future. After all these years, I am unsure he cares about me as a person. He remains angry about my mother’s illness and the impact it had on our family. I am on this threshold of starting anew – and he seems locked in the past and negative. My heart and soul is stricken by his lack of support and I don’t know what do to. I feel lost and unsure of where to go. Please pray for us --that my marriage can survive this latest challenge and that I can find the right path ahead of me.

Pamm,
My heart and those of many others go out to you and for your difficulties… Know that there are lots of people praying for wholesome resolution of your challenges. My dear, wonderful and honorable wife of 29 years a few years ago, when I read a message on a coffee mug, “Communication, The Key To Excellence”, said “That sure is the truth!”. Be sure to maintain or renew your communication with God and your husband. Pray together. Humility and gratitude for unseen or forgotten blessings will assure you clear thinking and a clean heart.
May God bless you and all of your loved ones, all the days of your lives! Happy Fathers’ Day to you! Colmcille&kin🙂
 
I am praying for you Pamm. It seems by your posting that at this stage in your life, there are variables in every direction. God’s Love is not a variable. May the Peace of Christ engulf you and lead you through the storm. You sound like an amazing, selfless person who looks after the needs of others before your own. Many people I know like you don’t always have people in their lives who reciprocate. Good Bless you Pamm.

PRAYER FOR CHOOSING A STATE OF LIFE

From all eternity, O Lord,
You planned my very existence and my destiny.
You wrapped me in Your love in baptism
and gave me the Faith
to lead me to an eternal life
of happiness with You.
You have showered me with Your graces
and You have been always ready
with Your mercy and forgiveness
when I have fallen.
Now I beg You for the light
I so earnestly need
that I may find the way of life
in which lies the best fulfillment of Your will.
Whatever state this may be,
give me the grace necessary
to embrace it with love of Your holy will,
as devotedly as Your Blessed Mother did Your will.
I offer myself to You now,
trusting in Your wisdom and love
to direct me in working out my salvation
and in helping others
to know and come close to You,
so that I may find my reward
in union with You for ever and ever.

Amen.
 
I am praying for you. You have a lot going on.
Pray for your husband every day, and show him you love him. He may be going through a really bad time, as well, for whatever reason.
Our prayers make such a difference! Never cease praying.
Will keep praying for you. Keep us posted!
 
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
 
I shall pray for you too. It is very sad, the loss you have went through, but it is great that you are recovering. May God help you.
 
St Joseph please intercede on this lady’s behalf to help find work that will enable her to meet her families needs and to cope w/ the stress and hurt a crisis like this causes. In Jesus’ Name I pray. :crossrc:

Peace & all good :console:
