Prayer Warrior
There is power in prayer (James 5:16)!
First, thank you for each and every prayer.
I have been really struggling with deep, deep sadness and despair (Ps 130:1-2).
I’m not suicidal, but I have prayed fervently that God would let me die in my sleep. I hate thinking like that, but the pain is so overwhelming. I am just being honest.
In less than a year, I have lost two really good jobs. I slept in my van 28 nights. I almost died on December 29, 2024. I have missed my wife and children deeply. I am exhausted.
Two weeks ago, I was told that I was the new manager at the gas station down the road. It was a hot paying job and it would’ve been a huge blessing to me. I asked God if it’s not your will please shut it down. He did!!
Yesterday, I spoke to a small church in Texas near the coast within miles of the beach. He and I spoke for probably 45 minutes. The church is only 45 members on a good Sunday but they can pay pretty decently. I would still need to get another job which I will be willing to do. So, when I got home, I contacted or messaged 8 to 10 schools looking for math or science, teachers or both.
I am prepared to move back to Texas to preach the gospel and teach school or manage someplace. If God opens up the doors, I will go.
I love my wife, and I love my children. I continue to pray, fervently that God will soften her heart and bring her to repentance. Every Sunday, I hope and pray that she will hear a sermon that will change her thinking.
“The wise woman builds her house, But the foolish pulls it down with her hands (Prov 14:1).”
I have already heard back negativity from at least one school. The principal, a lady, indicated interest in me, but she told me she just hired her last math teacher.
Again, I am confident if it is God’s will for me to go there Something will happen. There will be an open door that I cannot shut.
Please pray for these things.
I love my family with all my heart. I realize this life is temporary and like a mist or vapor. I belong to be in His presence.
In these prayer requests, always try to give an update to my situation, but I realized that some people have long forgotten about my previous request so I try to update my situation.
DoorDash
For the last several weeks, I’ve been getting up at two or 3 AM to go to DoorDash. I was at McDonald’s and I said something to one of the managers. From getting any more orders from McDonald’s. That is not good because McDonald’s gave me a lot of orders, especially in the morning.. So, I have had to change my routine to get orders. I keep praying that she will have a change of heart. From the electronic list so that I get more orders. Again, I view everything as the confidential hand of God.
In conclusion, please pray for the following:
Strength, I need strength.
Marital reconciliation, a miracle.
See my children. Family together.
A new job/career
A new home to live in.
Stability, out of limbo… Happiness!
Thank you for praying for me. I really appreciate each and every prayer on my behalf.
