Recently I was laid off from work - May 18th.
The pain of it has fully set in, I really liked my job working on cars and such - I still try to keep my chin up and act strong through it all but in the end when I am home alone, I break down.

I have my own place, and everything - but sadly if I can't get a job that will pay the bills I am not going to be able to stay here much longer, and I know that God says not to worry about things, but I have no place to go if I lose my apt. My family can't afford to take me in, and they don't really have the space for it. - True I have a relationship with someone, and its a wonderful one, but it's not HIS responsibility to care for me (until we are married that is)...

The pressure of finding a job is difficult, but the pressure of not having a back up plan in case things fall through is making it harder. And as the days have passed, one question in my mind is: What was the purpose of me losing my Job at this point in my life?
Is God trying to place me somewhere else? Or is this my own doing from the choices I've made? But in everything God has a purpose... What is it this time?

I'm at a loss, and I don't know what else to do - I will keep seeking answers, but please pray that God will reveal His Will in my life no matter what happens, Thank you...

My friend I could tell you so much about how I have been through a very similar thing. But if you keep faith in the Lord during this time you will see his glory displayed. I promise you. May Jesus bless you.
 
It's not easy carving out a way for yourself, Katie. These things happen. Trust in Him, study the Word, but also keep doing your part. Remember not to be afraid to walk through those doors that open up?

And that we can do all things, through He which strengthens us.


God bless.
 
Lord I ask you to go before KatieF as she searches for a new job. You have already supplied for her needs. Lord I ask you to send your supernatural peace and reassurance that you are her Dad and you have the means to provide for her. Lord I ask you to make this experience one that helps her grow in her walk with you. You know the outcome... you know the plans you have for her life... make your will abundantly clear to her as she seeks your perfect plan. Lord we thank you for this time to learn and this time to be still and rest in you. AMEN.
 
Praying that all will bring prvision in Jesus and glory to God for you.
Hugs and God bless.
