Prayer Request
Father, they say that if something is truly meant for you, it will come easily—that the path should be smooth. But what about this employment, Lord? Why has it been filled with so many trials? The agony has been overwhelming.
What if I don't get the chance to leave for another country? How will I send my children to school? How will I feed them? How will I pay off my debts?
If this job is not meant for me, Lord, please help me accept it. Help me truly feel and understand Your will. But You know I have children who depend entirely on me. I am raising them on my own.
Please let this be my victory, Father.
I don't think I can bear another failure this time, Lord. I have already endured so much pain. Please allow me to experience even a small victory—for the sake of my children.
Amen.

Many good things meant for us don't always come easily. Sometimes God wants US to work for things, as we usually appreciate them more when we have to work for them. Our Father is with you and will be with you throughout your current ordeal and after. I raised my 2 sons on my own as well, and I know it's not easy. But God got me through every hard and scary time I had (and I had a LOT of them). Please dump all your worries on Him. He WILL take them. Someday you will look back at this time in wonder, realizing He knew what He was doing all along and did the best thing for us. I will be praying for you. The Lord hears.
