Thank you so much for posting all those saints. I don’t know much about them…I’m not actually Catholic and am really struggling with what, if anything, I believe right now.I find the idea of patron saints inspiring, though…someone who has gone before you.
I can say that perseverance, reaching out for help, as you have done, is good. I found the job I have now through a connection at a job-search program that I saw a flier on while I was applying for food stamps.
 
Praying very hard for you job search and financial success to St. Joseph!
 
Prayed for you at Mass today.

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
 
I pray that your faith ahs made it possible towalkon water during this time of uncertainty. Trust in God, He will get you through.
I will offer my week for you!
 
Dear St. Jude, glorious apostle, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the name of the traitor has caused you to be forgotten by many, But the Church honors and invokes you universally as the patron of hopeless cases, and of things despaired of Pray for Justlookingny who is so miserable. Make use, I implore you, of that particular privilege accorded you to bring visible and speedy help where help was almost despaired of. Come to his assistance in this great need that he may recieve the consolation and succor of Heaven in all his necessities, tribulations and sufferings, particularly his financial need. and that he may bless God with you and all the saints through all eternity.
st. Jude, Apostle, martyr and relative of our Lord Jesus Christ, of Mary and of Joseph, intercede for us.:signofcross:

You are in my prayers as well. It can be hard to remember but God has promised he will never test us beyond our limits; he uses these tribulations to make us stronger and to test our faith. You will make it, it could take days it could take years, but please do not give up!
 
I received a very sad email today from CAF advising they are experiencing financial turmoil and if they do not receive donations the site may be shut down. Nooooooooo!!! That can’t happen because I, and everyone else, needs this site right now!! I need everyones prayers…I can’t do this alone! Sniffle.

It’s getting worse out there for the unemployed. I am looking for ANYTHING…even 7-11. How on earth can I live in the biggest city in the world (NY) that has no jobs for me?! Happy power and rent is paid through november 15…made it through another month. No jobs on the table though.

However, I am going to a religious retreat next weekend…maybe that will help to lift my spirits. And they are waiving my fees in order to attend. I keep telling myself to not play with forks and toasters…Im still just trying to hold on. Again…Thank you all for your continued prayers and God Bless you all. You are all in my prayers.
 
O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.
Amen
Still Praying for you.
 
Praying from today’s Liturgy of the Hours:

Psalm 145 (146)
The blessedness of those who hope in the Lord

Praise the Lord, my soul. I will praise the Lord all my life, make music to my God as long as I exist.

Do not trust in princes to save you, they are only sons of men.
One day their breath will leave them, they will return to the ground; on that day perish all their plans.

Happy the one whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the Lord his God,
who made heaven and earth and all that is in them,
who keeps faith for ever, who gives justice to the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry.

The Lord frees prisoners, he gives light to the blind, he raises the fallen.
The Lord loves the upright, cares for strangers, sustains orphans and widows; but the wicked he sends astray.

The Lord will reign for all ages, your God, O Sion, from generation to generation.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.

I don’t want to fail his test. I don’t need to be handed fish, but I do need the fishing pole…I just need opportunities to open up so that I can take care of myself…and if they don’t then i need miracles. But I don’t want to fail his test…I have to believe that for some reason, some unknown reason he is preparing me for something…maybe I will wind up with a job working for Donald Trump and maybe I will make so much money that I can just write Thank You checks to all of you who have stood by my side during this difficult time! Im trying to think positive and remain positive. Do you know that unemployment requires you apply to a certain amount of jobs per months…but there aren’t enough positions out there in my field to apply to (per unemployment quota?!) Everything is outside my field right now. I may have to move and I can’t think too much cause it hurts! Thank you all for your continued prayers.
 
Praying so hard for you,

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.

St. Joseph, pray for us.
