Hi, I'll pray for you,
I thought you might like to know about my own situation. A few years ago I was made redundant the whole process really knocked my confidence and for a while I found it hard to believe any one would want to employee me. So what happened, well God opened up an opportunity for me to take a paid temporary job with a Christian evangelistic organisation for a few months doing office work. It really helped me to get things into perspective and gain my confidence back. I also became more active in the work at my church while unemployed, helping out with the Youth Work and open air meetings etc.
I started to apply for permanant work. I took the brave decision to pray that if the jobs I applied for were not right for me, that I would not hear anything back at all and that I would not get an interview! After several months of hearing nothing at all, not even a thanks but no thanks letter I did wonder if I was right in praying that way!!
But then I finally got an interview, my very first one!! Guess what, I walked into the interview room, the Managing Director who was conducting the interview told me they had already decided to employ me just from my CV and really they had invited me to the place just to show me around!!! I could hardly believe it!!! He did not ask me anything at all, just told me about the job and pay, times, what they do etc.
So be strong in the Lord, trust in Him, let Him find the perfect job for you and in the meantime, see what work you can do for Him (not as a kind of bribe but because God is deserving of our time, use your time to continue to build a closer relationship with Him).

That is just your opinion. Without faith it is impossible to please God so as long as you are in unbelief no doors will be opened for you. How can you make judgments on something you have never experienced? Can you see the air? Yet it is there. Can you see thoughts? Yet they exist.
God is way beyond your finite mind.

Praying that you will one day see that it is not about death, but life now, life that is amazing and filled with an understanding that is greater than any one can imagine or realise on their own.
That life is more than the world, and great and filled with a perfect love already given to you in Jesus Christ is Lord!
Praying still for you in Jesus .
God bless
