Someone read this post and offered to pay my phone bill. I couldn't accept the generous offer but I told them I would pray that God would bless them beyond measure for the kind and generous offer. Would you please add this person to your prayers too? I don't want to embarrass them by posting their name. God knows who it is after all.

Curtis,

Hang on to your hat. This is a small admonition from one like yourself. I had many such similar offers from folks here as well during my 2 1/2 years of financial troubles and trials with job search.

In the end, some just sent money.  I had to realize that a) God moves others to be witness and b) we have to move to open ourselves to God's nudgings of our earthly brothers and sisters.

If we deny others their good intentions, we can be guilty of asking for God's help and then refusing it.  I know I was.   :(

Don't be like the joke of the woman in a flood that was offered rescue by 2 boats and a chopper only to stubbornly hold onto the idea that "God would save her."  Upon dying and facing God, she inquired why he abandoned her... and you likely know the retort: "My Child, I sent 2 boats and a chopper to save you, but you refused."

You can't receive calls about jobs you've applied for without phone.  Maybe you should reconsider?

Not scolding..just sharing how hard it was for me till God humbled me enough to realize that indeed, our earth angels are reaching out to do His will... don't deny them.

I still have some "pay it forward" debts that I owe. PM me please... maybe we could correspond more on this subject?

Peace Brother. I can feel your anguish more than you might know...so can others here. We've been there!  :)  

Keep the Son in your eyes!

Remember, Curtiss...all in His time... He always answers prayers, sometimes, His answer is "NO".

God's infinite..we're finite and can't begin to comprehend His ways... but we can trust that "all comes to Good for those who have faith".

Keep the Son in your eyes, bud!  :)

Knowing you're walking tall in faith and trusting Him is blessing enough on us!   :)

It's beginning to look like I won't be getting the management job I interviewed for. I need prayer for guidence of where to go from here. I know the first direction to take when starting a new chapter in your life is down, on your knees. Please keep me in your prayers.

Yup, Bud. Down on your knees and your eyes lookin up!  :)

I keep sharing, perhaps too often, how for that 2.5 years, I kept having chances at things I KNEW were perfect for me, but they just dind't happen. It's an awful feeling. Devil uses whatever he can to keep us from trusting in our Lord.  I often wonder if that time in the desert was extended due to my need to learn greater surrender?

When the world seems like it's against you and all hope is lost, its too easy to make other stupid, hurtful choices as well.  :(   You can't take them back. But we can always learn and try to move forward better trusting in God's will for our lives.

I wish I could tell you I landed in a dream job after all that time, but I can't. I told God I just wanted to use the skills he's "loaned" me to help others and He put me in a small company, struggling to survive, so my future is as tenuous as it was before, and there is a ton of frustration, but I can't shake the feeling that I'm supposed to be here doing exactly this and living out in faith. It's terrifying at times, but there is also some deeper small voice when I just listen.

My prayer for you today, Curtiss, is that God calms your fears, steadies your heart and vision and keeps you wrapped in His loving arms.  The rest will come, my friend, the rest will come.

Keep the Son in your eyes...

Curtiss I am in a somewhat similar situation. I have lifted you up before God and only ask that you do the same for me.

Thanks Allan.
I have tried twice to leave on update of my situation today. Both times something has happen to my connection and two very long posts in a row just evaporated.
I'll boil it down this time.]
Car trouble
Good Samaritan stops but unsuccessful
IDOT Official stops let's me use his cell, drives me to Walmart.
Small heartfelt miracle accures.
Car must be towed home
Stress level moderated by miracle
Lock up car and decide to worry about it next week and just go to the Kentucky Klassic with Crooked Stic and camp, shoot my bow, sit around a campfire and commune with the Lord in his Grandest Cathedral The Great Outdoors.

Miracles are not always making the lame to walk or the blind to see, but to open the eyes of our hearts to the maginificence of what God does in our daily lives...!

Maybe those connections broke for a reason?   :)   They tell us the worst thing at times is to "relive" in detail the challenges, but instead to focus on the solutions.... Only God knows at times like these, Curtiss.

May the Good Lord fill your heart and mind and take over control of your very spirit while you're there in the woods amist fellow archers...and bring you insight and direction.

Keep the Son in yoru eyes!
