It is 3:43 AM and I have been doing DoorDash over one hour this. I’ve made two deliveries.
On June 16, 2025, I received bad news; I would no longer be employed as a laboratory manager. It was very unsettling, considering all the hard work I’d put in the job.
At the time, I had lived in my van for 28 nights. On that same day, I was given a free primitive apartment living in a basement. It’s almost like God knew a bad day was coming and he helped me get a better place to live.
Since then, I have had a number of job interviews. Good job, interviews. Unfortunately, despite going through all the motions; I have not secured a job.
Last week, I was told that I was hired as the manager for a local gas station, a very nice gas station. I was excited about it. However, since then I have not heard anything.
When you’re looking for a job and you do not hear anything; it’s usually a bad thing. The job was either rescinded or they found somebody else. It’s very disheartening!
I had worked previously for Volkswagen in a temporary position. I contacted the lady who is the recruiter and previously she had told me there was a position in New Jersey for eight weeks. I turned it down because I had the job at the gas station. The last two days I’ve talked to her, hoping that one position is left for me. Yesterday, she told me she thought there might be one position and she would get back with me by the days in, but never did.
I really need a job. I’m willing to go to New Jersey and work eight weeks.
So I do DoorDash once or twice every day and try to stay above water financially. I don’t have the best vehicle for DoorDash and so I spend a lot of money on gas.
I know God is fully aware of my situation and I am 100% confident; he will provide. In the meantime, I am suffering and I am 100% exhausted.
Marriage
My wife left me a few years ago and stole my children. I had gone to Texas for a job to take care of my family. She stayed behind in Alaska.
For over a year, I pleaded with God to take me back to Alaska. Finally, on August 19, 2024, God answered my prayer with the first class ticket from San Francisco to Alaska. I moved to Alaska with no place to live in no car to drive. I had a job as a teacher and a coach.
I’ve been here all this time and I have suffered ups and downs that I could write a book about. I keep praying and I keep hoping but nothing so far.
My dreams are filled with images of my children, and my family, and I wake up exhausted and depressed.
I have read the psalms probably 30 times since October 2023. I try and read them at least once a month.
Please pray for me!
