Keep the faith and praying, let God have this, I did, I have a 22 yo old and we just kept trying. Actually what helped us find something for him to try to learn was a site, called cooljob.com. They list jobs all over the US and the ones we looked at were ones where he didnt need a car, and they supplied housing and some food. He did a whole season 8 months out in the Grand Canyon, now granted he made some money and he had to save it. They gave him lodging and he bought a bike. A great learning experience. One thing that saved me, trying to get him to focus and find a path was to remember that life is a journey and God has plans for him and they are bigger than you can imagine. You must trust the journey. Be who you are a mom, and guide, show jobs, try a part time to see if it is what he wants. It is so hard for boys I think. Well I just really wanted to share with you to keep your heads up that God has this.. I promise
I usually don't ask for too much. I need prayers, just to keep the strength up, to get past this health issue I am dealing with. I know that it is just an issue of balance and rebuilding of muscles, and it really does just take time. I hate the constant ache, the constant pushing I have to do. Nothing comes easy. I also ask for prayers to lose the weight, which in turn will make walking much easier. I pray that I keep the strength and the faith to know it will all be okay. Also I pray for financial freedom. I have accumulated a bit of debt in trying to get back on my feet. Help me to figure it all out. Please keep my family and my self in prayer. God is good and He has brought me so far.. The journey is with Him always. Amen
Submit your prayer request. Thousands of caring people will see it and pray for you.
Never give up. I was on my fourth hip surgery in a 6 month period and I lost sight, I lost the one thing I always depended on God. I just couldn't hear him amoung the fear the pain, the commotion. As I was sitting on the chair in the dr office that I can tell you the pain and the tears streaming and suddenly a quiet little stir within me, just a whisper...never fear.. this is a journey. I got it, this is a journey, not a race, not to see how much you can do, or be, a journey a day to day, sometimes minute to minute. But a journey you are not alone in. You must sometimes be quiet and weak to hear Him. And even if you can not you must realize that He is the one that carries you on the days you just can't/ So my friend, never stop, maybe take it a minute by minute, cry, scream,.. fight for that life that He has given you. Find something small, that makes you smile. Find the sunshine in the rain, the light in the dark. To know all the bad, makes the good so much better. Enjoy the journey. I pray you always keep going.
