Hey Guys,
I think I’ve come to a realization that as a freelance Illustrator I’m just not as happy as I was when I was drawing for a company. There was something about being hidden in a staff, where I wouldn’t have to risk being sucked into the temptations of selfish ambition that go with being an independent artist that made me extremely happy. I could just use the gifts God gave me and draw. I think I know now more than ever that’s where I ought to be, and I wanted to ask for your prayers, that I would be able to find a job that pleases God and that I would somehow find joy in the commissions I’m doing now, caring about getting the job done and doing the art well instead of caring about worldly success. I thank you very much for all of your prayers, and the advice you have all given me, and I thank God for all of you.
 
Lord give us faith to believe that all work, however humble, is sanctified by your presence when we offer it to the Father, just as you offered your lowly work as a carpenter in Nazareth to the glory of his name.

Heavenly Father, your Son Jesus Christ has taught us that all our possessions and talents are on trust from you, help us to be zealous and faithful stewards of all you have given us, so that, true to your grace, we may merit to be welcomed into your kingdom as good and faithful servants, who have in all things sought and accomplished your holy will.
 
I pray that God leads you to meaningful employment that pays well. :signofcross:
 
:gopray:

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

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

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy 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

Please pray for my husband.
He will be in meetings this week to determine if he will be re-admitted to nursing school. Lord, you know what has happened and what is right in your eyes. Let the truth come out. Please lift him up, Lord. Please also help him find a job, too.

Amen
 
Our Father who art in heaven
Hallowed be your name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us
Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
Amen.

Praying to St. Joseph for you to find meaningful employment.
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

Prayer to St. Joseph for the Unemployed

O Saint Joseph, we pray to you for those who are out of work, for those who want to earn their living or support their families.

You who are the patron of workers; grant that unemployment may vanish from our ranks; that all those who are ready to work may put their strength and abilities in serving their fellowmen and earn a just salary.

You are the patron of families; do not let those who have children to support and raise lack the necessary means. Have pity on our brothers and sisters held down in unemployment and poverty because of sickness or social disorders. Help our political leaders and captains of industry find new and just solutions. May each and every one have the joy of contributing, according to his abilities, to the common prosperity by an honorable livelihood. Grant that we may all share together in the abundant goods God has given us and that we may help underprivileged countries. Amen

Blessed art thou amongst women, and
Blessed is the Fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God,
Pray for us Sinners, now and at the our of death. Amen

Keep your head up, Believe Miracles do happen, God Bless you!🙂
