I've been a single mom for almost 10 years now. My ex husband molested our daughters. We had to move out of our house into a smaller place, give our dog away, lost 2/3 of our income. And of course have dealt with the emotional and mental distress and healing from a lot of other abuse as well that I did not know anything about. I work at a low income job, have always been way too busy to even consider going to school and getting a degree and better job. God has taken very good care of us, we have not lacked for anything, but there are many times when money for things like shoes, car repairs, etc is very difficult to come by. The job market here is extremely poor, my kids have not been able to find jobs. There is no money for any activities or time away to have some fun, none at all on my income. It is hard to see people around me have the extra things when we are going through all this due to somebody else's bad choice. Today I just feel extremely discouraged and hopeless. I know Who is taking care of us but sometimes you feel like you just need to see something better on the horizon.
He has carried through this adversity up until now, and he will carry you through the entire way. Just remember that he says "this too shall pass." Meaning you WILL get through this!! We all feel discouraged at some time or another. It's our human nature to worry and fret about stuff. Clear the worry and anxiety out of your mind and you will be able to clearly see better things just ahead!! God bless you, and here is a big ladybug hug for you!!
