A Mother's Help Finding A Job And Coping With An Alcoholic Husband

[MelissaS1]

Hello! I am someone who truly enjoys the teaching profession. I have always wanted to be a teacher and will always want to be a teacher. I care about helping children learn to read and so many other things. The problem is I live in a state that has thousands of other teachers looking for jobs and only a small number of openings. I graduated in 1996 and have been unsuccessful at finding my dream job. I taught in Catholic school only to get laid off due to the school being closed. I have worked in learning centers, substitute taught, covered maternity leaves, gone back to school for extra certification, and now I am working as an assisstant in a daycare/preschool. I diligently seek employment year after year and go to interviews only to recieve a "rejection letter" in the mail. I have been told I am a good teacher, but I am never offered a job that I need. At this time I have a list of job openings that is part-time work for the 2011-2012 school year. I will be very happy to take part-time teaching work from a school now because I have a one year old. It would help me pay for our needs and still allow time to give my daughter the love and nurturing she deserves. I really need your prayers to get a job offer that will help me financially and give me the chance to be who I am at heart. Especially because my husband is an alcoholic and I need to bring home enough money to pay for our needs in case he hits another crisis. I go to Al-Anon and I understand I need to simply keep my focus on taking care of my daughter and myself while God somehow leads my husband to sobriety. I would really appreciate your prayers in this matter. I really need God to guide me in writing my resume, to be there for me on interviews and demo lessons to secure a job for the 2011-2012 school year. If there is anything I can improve on may God send me the message and help do what it takes to get a job offer by August. May school administrators put aside their politics and give a job to someone who has waited a very long time and has much experience and a love for teaching. Thank you all for your time and caring. I pray that your prayers be answered.

Psalm 20:7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

Lord,

I pray you give your daughter peace and open a job opportunity for her. Guide her as she writes her resume and may your favor rest upon her application. Allow her to be called for an interview and receive a job offer before August.

Give her this testimony that she may praise you. I pray you also deliver the husband from alcoholism and save his soul that he and the entire family will worship you as Lord and Savior of their lives.

Bless her with miracles concerning her job, her husband and family that she may rejoice in you.

In Jesus name.

Amen!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.....I am praying with you.
