I watch you program quite often and I am praying for prayer. My family needs prayer. We have so many responsibilities that are just to big for all of us. We are all trying so hard to do what God would have us to do but it seems as though things just get more difficult. On top of that I have a severe Rheumatoid arthritis in which I do Chemo for and have had numerous surgeries in order to just be able to not be totally disabled. That with the chemo keeps me functional. Well, my prayer is really not so much for us but more so for a woman that we have invited into our home because she (when I met her had 3 days to move out of the place she was at with her cat.) and also has no car and she had her bike stolen at Trader Joes just a couple of weeks ago. So at first I told her I had some bikes and we aren't using them too often so We gave her a bike. But to just let her go knowing that she had no where to go in just a few days just did not sit well with me at all. So she is with us sharing a room with my daughter and she is actively seeking employment but she doesn't have a car. The last person she lived with was here in Mission Viejo at an elderly home. I spoke to the owner and everyone there and all of them gave me a good reference. The only trouble is that she was unable to lift he elderly. So that job had to be given to someone who could. So the trouble I have is that I feel so helpless. She has 800.00 saved and The situation with her being here is very temporary. (like weeks) But I have encouraged her to find a part time job (walking distance) and in the meanwhile, while look for a full time job and just save the money so she can buy a car. I've thought well maybe I should just quit my job, give her my car. And I should get a part time job near by, walk and ... well is so hard when you want to do more but how do you do it. We are already going down hill hopeing not to loose our house etc. I just feel helpless and I have been praying because I want to help her move forward but there is only so much I can do. I know everyone has there part. But I also believe that God put us here to be of service. I was a single mom for 15 years and lived in a foreign country for 8 of those years and I can't say that I did it on my own. It was the Lord on every occasion who provided for me through others and in very miraculs ways. I just do not know what to do. We need prayer support am praying that God would help her to have a stable home, job and be able to get to and from and to be able to know that God does provide and has not forgotten about her. All I can do is share my testimony and give her what I can. I know it can't take all her problems away and I can't do the work for her, but I know what it's like to be helped and I just pray that God would help her. Also I am a tither but my husband quite isn't so it's been a problem.
Thank you for kind consideration to this matter.
God Bless you Lisolette
