I'm sitting here crying as I type this, the stress of the situation my husband and I have been forced into is so great that I can hardly take it any longer. I am in my 8th month of pregnancy with our first (a baby girl) and was told just a few weeks ago by our landlord that we must vacate our house by October 1st; we paid our rent - always, on time - he failed to pay the mortgage (pocketing our money) and is losing the house we currently reside in. We are struggling to find a place in our price range, and so far have had our hopes up twice (with two different places that gave us the okay to move in) only to be told last minute that they required more money (on top of damage deposits, first and last etc) and be back to square one hunting yet again. It's starting to feel like a cruel joke, and I am now too scared to even get my hopes up. I am starting to lose hope, and am terrified we are going to have to raise our daughter in an unsafe crime ridden neighborhood, when all we want is to give her the best possible start to life. As the days tick by I get more and more scared. I can no longer sleep at night, and am supposed to be on modified bed rest for the final duration of my pregnancy (I was born with a heart condition and am considered "high risk"). We only have a few days left to find something "suitable" before having to move where ever will take us (the last place we viewed had **** roaches and possible gang activity)!!
Please pray that God will readily give us the perfect place to raise our little girl, and please pray that all of this burden and stress be lifted from my family. Please pray for my daughter's health and my health as well. I worry about all of the stress I'm feeling effecting her (and the fact that I no longer sleep). It's been along time since we've had a prayer answered, and I'm trying so hard to keep up my faith, I just want something good to come out of all this turmoil. I'm terrified we are going to end up homeless or in a horrible situation, even though my husband works so hard to provide for us, and all I want is a good life for my daughter.
