I need a job - am I too old ?

Please pray that God will meet me today. I urgently need a job. I have applied for many jobs and every application has been so far ignored. I think it may that I am too old - I am 52 years old!

I have a large number of debts that will lead me to loosing my home if they are not met soon.

I am so ashamed that I hide away from people and have not told many people about my predicament. I was unemployed for 2 years from 20002 - 2004 and during that time I got divorced and lost all of my savings.

I lost my last job 2 months ago and I am scared that I may not get another job. I am about to cash in part of my pension fund to pay for my living expenses. This will obviously means that I will never be able to retire.

I really need God to enter into my situation soon and open doors for me.

B&Q and Asda actively recruit over 50s in some areas, appreciating their reliability. Without knowing your talents you can register with an agency as a tutor or an adult education college if you are able to teach anything from sewing to Arabic. Maybe put an ad in your local paper, over 50, reliable, looking for work (you say in what area).
Schools need assistants to help in the classroom, primary or secondary. You don't need a degree for that but if you have that's fine too. If you are a good organiser, clutter clearers/home organisers make a lot of money, £30 per hour.
It is written that the steps of a righteous man are ordered by God, as you step out in faith He will not leave you or forsake you, He is a friend that sticks closer than a brother. He will not see the righteous forsaken nor their seed begging bread. I stand in agreement with you that every door of prejudice be closed and new divine doors be open for you, it is written that thou, O Lord, will bless the righteous, with favour you will encompass him as with a shield.
Without knowing how to help you specifically be encouraged and know that weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning. Bless
