I have been coming here, everyday since I found this site through FaceBook (Years). For the daily inspirational messages (which are a "heck" of a lot better than my horoscopes). And also to read "others" and say a prayer, "give" a thought and prayer to others. In my neighborhood, (as in every ones) There are homeless people... some, through no fault of their own. Life just " kicked them down, and they never could get up again. I sometimes help those I can, (food, $$, "direction"..) when I can, Even though, I am a single father of a disabled girl (no longer little, now a woman... she's 32 but functions on a "6-7 yr. old level" Never to increase...) I have raised her alone since she was 2 (when her mom walked out..). I have sacrificed, gone without ( Things, Food, Friends...) , BUT never complained, as SHE was and is the most important thing in my world.. (especially with my previous past/history..) And because, GOD seems to have always looked out for us, and been on OUR shoulder and had our back. ( or, at least Hers, I'm just along for the ride...) And "HE" has Never let us hit "Rock Bottom", or let us down.
But, 2 years ago, a water pipe burst under our home floors (the copper/iron water pipes you may have heard of on TV situation ) and flooded half our home.. Because of my home insurance company, the time I spent with "everyone involved"...(Adjusters, Plumbing co. ( who are the best and have been here for us, with or without pay for 13 years) and others, who didn't care... I was fired and lost my job. That was June of 2016... I haven't worked since. I have gotten no help, or assistance, I am not asking for a miracle,,, just a prayer.... For a job... I have 35 years in insurance claims, and I am 59 years old. And nobody wants me (for BOTH those reasons.) I don't want to be "taken care of"... I just want to take care of my daughter and me.. (BTW... I also Rescue and foster pets due for euthanasia, in fact, right now, I have 3 kittens, 2 "olde" cats, and an older dog ( a Puggle) ) This is the "Family" I am trying to save.) Just a prayer... a Good Word, I may not have been worth it 20 years ago, I just hope GOD thinks I am worth it now.... Thank You...
My daughter,Jennifer was born disabled 30 years ago and I have raised her alone for the last 28 years. Through the years of struggle, disapointment, lost jobs (due to her care and needs) I have never lost my belief and faith that God is there, watching over us and taking care of us. And no matter what, my daughter has never lost her smile and the love I feel inside when she smiles makes it all worth the pain and work. GOD IS AWESOME.
