My husband and I have been struggling a lot lately. When we were married, we went ahead and had our first child earlier than most people expected, trusting God. We really planned for me to stay at home and watch the baby, maybe work a little part time, and my husband work full time. That didn’t work out so well, my husband has been struggling with school and has taken two semesters longer to graduate, so I have been working a stressful job when all I want to do is raise my child. Luckily, my MIL has graciously provided our son with a loving caregiver while I am gone to work.

I have prayed and prayed, especially lately as my son is over 1 year old now and is starting to walk and talk, that if God wants it, to provide us with a financial situation that I can be a stay at home mom with.

All of a sudden, my husband, who couldn’t find a job that he was qualified for AND felt he could do, found a job - which pays almost exactly what I make now. I would still need to work part time, but not one day later I found a job opening that is perfect for what I need, 8 hours a week and probably doesn’t start until the school year starts (which gives me time to transition out of my old job without leaving them high and dry)

Of course, we need to apply for these jobs. My husband is applying for the one he is interested in today, and I plan to put in an application tonight when I get home.

Please pray for us, that if this is God providing us with these jobs (that seem to fit so perfectly) that He would guide us and help us with the applications and interviews.
 
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.
 
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.

†

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.

Praying for you and your family.
May this work out for you soon.

Glorious Saint Cajetan, acclaimed by
all people to be father of providence
because you provide miraculous aid to
all who come to you in need, I stand
here before you today, asking that you
present to the Lord the requests that
I confidently deposit in your hands.

Please help this couple as they
apply for these positions…

May these graces that I now request
help me to always seek the Kingdom
of God and his Righteousness,
knowing that God — who dresses with
beauty the flowers of the field and
abundantly feeds the birds of the
sky — will give me all other
things. Amen.
