Brothers and Sisters I am fighting anxiety right now. Woke up with thoughts of worry. Worry about the hardships of family members. Please pray for my sister who is having financial challenges. It scares me for her and saddens me because I am limited in how I can help, but am helping as I can.
I am anxious over my own financial situation. A big rent increase and I see more on the way and I can't afford it. I am fearful that I am getting on in age and do not have a home. I worked all my life to sustain, care for myself and to help others and it feels like I don't have a lot to show for it. Saying things like that makes me feel bad because I have much more than others.
I hate my job and it is taking its toll on me and it scares me. Yet, I know that there are many who do not have a job so I feel bad even saying anything. So, why am I? Because I find comfort when I connect with you brothers and sisters. I find comfort when I speak from the heart and ask for help for what I need. Not trying to make my situation pretty with words. Sometimes, it is hard to open yourself and be honest but if I am going to ask for prayer I am going to be honest and hope that I am not judged, like I do not judge those who I pray for. I feel like I should be doing something more to help myself and I don't know what. I feel stuck and have felt stuck for a while. I feel like I keep coming to this site with the same prayer request and my prayers are not being answered in these areas. I need help.
Sometimes, like this morning, I just feel totally overwhelmed and don't know what to pray for. Just struggle with keeping anxiety at bay and trying to bounce back. So, I am turning to you to cover me in prayer. What I can do is pray for others. Funny, sometimes praying for others instead of for myself helps a lot.
Thank you and have a blessed day
