Those that believe in GOD ONLY...?

I moved out of state a few months ago. It has been really hard to find a job. My financial situation is getting worse as the bills pile up and fall behind. I pray to GOD and my faith is very strong. I try to read my BIBLE every few days or so, sometimes daily. HE has opened a few doors for me and I'm grateful. Can anyone who shares the same belief give me some spiritual inspiration or encouragement. Sometimes I just want to break down but my faith keeps me strong.

    I've always been told that God never gives us more to handle than we, with His help, are able to bear. There have been times I know I would not have made it without His help.

    The experiences I had when my life seemed darkest, God is now allowing me the opportunity to use to help others. I realize that had I not been through the challenges, I would not have the passion and compassion to do what I do now.

    Keep strong. We don't ever know how God will use us and what will happen to prepare us for what's to come.

    God bless you!

    My mother had a hard time finding a job in teaching. She is retired military and her last four years in she went to school to get a masters in teaching grade school.

    After months of job searching she couldn't find a job in teaching until the day she received her diploma a school called her up and asked her to be a long term sub for them, because the teacher just quit and they needed someone fast. That was an answered prayer and an opened door.

    After the school year ended she didn't receive a job in teaching. No good reason, in fact the man that took her place ended up shooting someone. Anyway, she searched for a teaching job all summer long and at the very end of the summer she received a job in writing curriculum for a joint forces class on base. She basically has the same exact job that she had on active. It's not what she wanted exactly, but for what she's been through, emotionally, the past year she really needed this job. Because the people she works with are all Christian and very friendly people. So they help her keep her spirits up. That is an opened door from God and a great on too.

    while doing this, you could get a 2nd job.

    Stay strong, stay vigilant, keep looking, good luck. I have no spiritual advice since I'm buddhist/agnostic. I hope you find happiness in your life, believe in your own power, that you can do it, if your faith helps and gives you hope use that too.

    Well my husband went to prison and left me thousands of dollars in debt and with our 2 kids. My car broke down. God provided me with the money to pay off all the debt, and buy a car....so I can't complain really.

    He's always taken care of you. All things work out for the good for those who love God. His eye is on the sparrow. etc

    Seriously, one day you will look back on this and know why.

    Sometimes God tests our faith to see if we really do trust him. I have experienced such things, and I wanted to give up, but I couldn't because if God will bring you to it, HE WILL DEFINITELY BRING YOU THROUGH IT. GOD WILL NEVER PUT MORE ON US THAN WE CAN BARE, AND JUST WHEN WE SEE NO WHERE TO GO AND TURN, GOD, IS ALWAYS ON TIME!!!!!!THANK YOU JESUS. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT GOD WANTS US TO PROSPER, ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS DEVOTE OURSELVES FULLY TO HIM. HE WANTS TO BE HEAD OF OUR LIVES. GOD TIMING IS NOT OUR TIMING. SO HOLD AND KEEP THE FAITH, GOD SEES YOU AND KNOWS YOUR HEART, AND HE HAS BROUGHT YOU TOO FAR FOR YOU TO GIVE UP NOW. BE BLESSED

  • But lo! with hardship goeth ease, (5) Lo! with hardship goeth ease; (6) So when thou art relieved, still toil (7) And strive to please thy Lord. (8)

    And surely We shall try you with something of fear and hunger, and loss of wealth and lives and crops; but give glad tidings to the steadfast, (155) Who say, when a misfortune striketh them: Lo! we are Allah's and lo! unto Him we are returning. (156) Such are they on whom are blessings from their Lord, and mercy. Such are the rightly guided. (157)

    And if a whisper from the devil reach thee (O Muhammad) then seek refuge in Allah. Lo! He is the Hearer, the Knower. (36)

    It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces to the East and the West; but righteous is he who believeth in Allah and the Last Day and the angels and the Scripture and the prophets; and giveth wealth, for love of Him, to kinsfolk and to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and to those who ask, and to set slaves free; and observeth proper worship and payeth the poor-due. And those who keep their treaty when they make one, and the patient in tribulation and adversity and time of stress. Such are they who are sincere. Such are the God-fearing. (177)

    Establish worship at the two ends of the day and in some watches of the night. Lo! good deeds annul ill-deeds. This is reminder for the mindful. (114) And have patience, (O Muhammad), for lo! Allah loseth not the wages of the good. (115)

    O ye who believe! Endure, outdo all others in endurance, be ready, and observe your duty to Allah, in order that ye may succeed. (200)

    Seek help in patience and prayer; and truly it is hard save for the humble-minded, (45) Who know that they will have to meet their Lord, and that unto Him they are returning. (46)

    Sweetie, you don't need to pray.

    You need to work.

    Take a job doing ANYTHING, and stop getting so behind in your bills. Then, instead of praying for a job...you can pray for a BETTER job.

    God helps those who help themselves....
