learning my [small] part in the [BIG] story of God

a simple request.

with 2 comments

i have a simple request. please pray for me. i don’t ask often, but right now i really need it. if you don’t read any further than this please just pray that God give me peace with my emotions. also pray for my job/career situation.

i do have a full time job right now, but i’ve been feeling really out of place there. i need a job, actually more of a career, that fits me better and where i know i am in God’s will fulfilling my purpose…and i need it to pay better than my current job. i have a lot of debt and financial struggles right now that i need to take care of.

some of you know that i really struggle with depression, some of you didnt know until now. but it’s become progressively harder and harder to hide my depression. it’s been pretty intense lately. please pray that God heal me of this, and that my attitude toward life and others just gets better.

i really haven’t been myself lately…i guess i just need to refocus…i don’t know…i’ve written something here just to erase it completely and start new a few times now but at some point i just need to post what i’ve written and hope it makes sense and doesnt come off sounding selfish or self centered even tho i’m sure no matter what i write it will feel that way to me….

anyway, thank you for taking time to read this and even more thanks for your prayers. i really do appreciate those of you who pour your lives into others through prayer and just living life with each other. life is a lot about community and a lot about communication with God and with others.

prayer does make a difference. it does change things. whether it’s a change in me or my surroundings. thank you again, you are loved.

  1. I gotcha brother, I won’t let you walk it alone. We are heirs to a kingdom, divinely loved and uniquely created. My prayer for you is Colossians 1:9-12.

    Just take some time to refill and reflect, pray and praise so you can get back out there ready to be poured out. Anything you need bro, I’m here, thanks for being my friend.

    Let this light shine in your heart:
    Philippians 4:12
    James 1:2-4
    2 Thessalonians 2:13-17
    1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
    Psalm 42

    Quote from Francis J. Roberts: “He who knows he is loved can be content with a piece of bread, while all the luxuries of the world cannot satisfy the cravings of the lonely.”

    Quote from Batman Returns: “The reason why we fall is so we can learn to get back up again.”
