The Stress of Not Being Employed

The increasing amount of unemployment stress building upon me weighs heavy. I find that my only outlet is scrapbooking, but I am left with only the supplies I have built up over the last few years because my pockets run thin. My daughter commands most of the money I have saved which leaves me with little to nothing. I have my health, I have my daughter - who is healthy, and I have a roof over my hear so my complaints can only run so far as I have more than a vast many in the world today. Still I find that as the days and weeks go by and I still haven't received word of any potential job offers, my strength, faith and belief that all will be fine is greatly being tested. It weakens dramatically at the thought of how long I have been in this new place (almost 4 months!). I must fight to hold on to the feeling that it will all work out because my daughter depends on me. I am not walking this earth alone and no longer can I allow myself to sulk for if I fall back, she falls as well. I pray work will come soon, even just a part-time job would be enough (it would allow me to finish my degree). I pray because I do not know what else to do and I fear that soon I will allow myself to be broken by the not so light baggage of depression. I pray that things will start to fall into place soon.

I will keep you and your daughter in my thoughts and prayers and know that God has a good plan for you and so keep praying and He will send the answers. Blessings to you as you walk through this time and may you grow stronger in your faith and become a Godly witness to your darling daughter who will face her own trials when she grows up and will draw upon the strength she sees in you as you draw from the Lord. May God bless you and keep you as you depend on Him!
