My family has fallen on hard times financially recently, and it's been very stressful - we've had to go without food every so often, our housing situation is unstable, and our health hasn't been the best. I'm struggling paying my phone bill, which is the only way I can remain in contact with my mother, friends, and SO (and it's my family's only means of calling anyone, which is a necessity since we currently have taken up residence in the middle of nowhere).

I'm in a long-distance relationship I really want to work but it will have to be long distance for a few years, minimum, before we can close the distance - and my SO is having a hard time, too, coping with the loss of a parent, deteriorating health, and school. H
While respectful of my beliefs, he is a staunch atheist so I feel strange telling him he is in my prayers, but I really want his life to improve - he's been very depressed lately. I hope he and I are able to meet soon and be together.

My family is divided, there is a lot going on, and my health isn't amazing right now.

Just, please, keep this in your prayers, as I have in mine.

I am so sorry to hear about your family’s financial situation, JasmineTilde. I have been in the exact same boat as you last year, and I know it’s not easy to face an ongoing struggle to make ends meet. I am praying for you and your family. May the Lord provide for your needs and sustain you with His strength in the days ahead. Praying for your boyfriend, too. Just hang in there, it will all be okay soon. Hugs!

I'm sorry you are in a financial crisis at this time and pray for some relief. Pray for El Shaddai to provide for you as He did in the wilderness with all that manna! Study the wilderness experience in the Bible and get to a church. Christians and Atheists do not mix, its like water and oil. There can be no unity. It seems the attraction is both of you are in desperate situations. "Lord Jesus, only You know the details of this situation and the heart motivations....please lead with Your Holy Spirit and provide for these people whom you love. Bring salvation, protection and a church family to surround them with your love. Stir up faith like our forefathers in Hebrews 11 and draw Jasmine to your Word for refreshment. Amen AmmaBev

I wanted to thank you all for your prayers. I'm having an appointment scheduled for my medical problem tomorrow. I'm still anxious but I think things are getting better.

I've had a few very in-depth, respectful discussions with my boyfriend about religion - he's always open to listen. I think Christians can mix well with anyone willing to listen - there's nothing to be gained by only associating with those of identical viewpoints, after all. Desperate times may be what brought us together but we're going to get out of them stronger, and hopefully better people.
