Please pray for my success as I look for a job. My world has fallen apart lately. (Many of you have been praying for my intentions with my ex-boyfriend. And I sincerely appreciate that.)

The job I thought I had back in May didn’t come through. Knowing that my contract was ending on June 30th, I went on the market late last year. (I’m an academic librarian and the cycles are strange and the process is long.) I have spent a lot of time having phone interviews, prepping presentations, traveling (often cross-country) for the in-person interview, often a day and a half affair, and nothing has come through for me. I lost out on a job to an alum of the college at one place, and to an internal candidate they didn’t make me aware of until the end of the interview at another. And in one instance, I was ganged up on by 4 or 5 people in one meeting because they didn’t like something I said, but rather than let me answer their concerns, they just kept talking over me. It’s been a very frustrating experience.

Then, my boyfriend broke things off as I was moving x-country to be with him. I’ve since had to move home.

I went on a date with a guy from match and he turned out to be a psycho and started harassing me and then two days later, I was in a car accident.

Finding work would be one of the steps for me to regain a footing in the world, I think. Please pray for my success in finding work with one of the applications I currently have out. And also, that things go ok with the insurance, etc., after the accident.
 
Wishing you success as you search for work.
Don’t give up!

Take this time you have now to reflect on some things in your spiritual life.

I am in a similar situation looking for work. The rosary has been a solace, as has all the kind prayers, here on CA and elsewhere.

St. Jude, St. Joseph, and St. Martha, please intercede for our sister so she may overcome present troubles and obtain a position to give her peace of mind so she may further dedicate her life to God’s glory.

Immaculate Heart of Mary, look kindly upon the sons and daughters of your Church.

Jesus Christ, son of God, I trust in You,

We pray in Jesus’ Name,

Amen.
 
Lord, please help Pax Tecum Filum. Please help her get the job she applied for and please grant that her insurance will cover the cost of her car accident. Please help her to persevere in faith no matter how bad things are in her life. May she keep strong in faith, hope and love and grow closer to you through this struggle. Help her find work soon, please; and help her to place all her trust in you. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer. Amen.
 
Thanks.

As I try to pick up the pieces of my life, I really appreciate your prayers.
 
Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
 
Prayers for your successful job search and Christs’ peace and harmony in your life.
 
Thanks everyone. I’ll keep you updated.

Yesterday, I applied for my 6th job in Alabama. I don’t think I’ve applied for that many jobs in Mass. (my home state) since December. Academia is a weird place. Lots of jobs in the South, not too many up here. sigh

Alabama happens to be the home-state of the ex. 😦
 
Praying that you find a good job soon and the insurance situation works out …
