I am lacking in faith. I, just a few years ago, had very strong faith. A big part of my problem is that I am a felon. I have messed my life all up, and that of my family. I got sent to prison (stealing-everyone wants to know) I did my time. I got out. I cut ties with all the people I hung around who were involved in that stuff. There is no such thing as "paid his debt to society". I am a skilled worker (HVAC) I have been passed over for so many jobs...sometimes by Christians, because of my record. I didn't stop breaking the law because I got caught. I have no doubt I could do that stuff and not get caught. I'm just not interested in that. I feel I am a dead weight to my children and girlfriend; because I am only able to get work about 50% of the time. I often think they'd be better off if I were not around. I guess I am asking for prayer for me to have faith that God cares and to be able to get a job that pays me for the hours I work.(there are places that don't)

Lord Jesus, that this person find a job of which they are qualified; & be healed by Your Blood, forgiving themselves & living according to Your Word. Every Christian has a cross to bear, sometimes it is heavy. Do not worry what others think of you, as long as you are right with Christ, you will be fine! Continue to seek prayer & pray for others. God Bless you!
