While I'm not in dire straights like so many out there are these days, I would like to ask for prayer as search for a better paying job. I am a divorcee of a little over a year who has had to rely on my ex husband for additional money to pay for debt that was put in my name when we were married, due to his bad credit. This would include a mortgage on a home that is falling apart, two cars and multiple credit cards. After his affair, the divorce left me with trying to pay for everything on a $775 paycheck every two weeks. I was "awarded" everything in the divorce, but his income, which is now more than twice what I make, is gone and he has no debts and lives happily ever after with his mistress. I am tired of feeling like I have to beg him for money every two weeks. I have two bachelors degrees and gave up a career to raise our young son at the time, while he pursued his dream of being a law enforcement officer.
I have drained my savings and have had to result to using a payday loan, just to get by. I've been applying for jobs that I know I have the skill to do for nearly a year now and have had three interviews, only one of which has made it past the first interview. I just want to be self-sufficient...just like I was before i was married, continue to raise my awesome 16 year old son and support us without having to scrape pennies together to buy milk while we wait on my ex to decide when he's going to drop a check by. I'm asking for prayer that, during this time, my heart and mind are still, and that although many job opportunities may pass by me, that I do not question them, but have faith the Lord has a better plan for me and my son than I could ever imagine. I would greatly appreciate your prayers and the time you spare on my behalf.
