We understand your concern Elodie, and we want to assure you that God cares about even the smallest details of our lives, including finding a suitable handyman. Firstly, let's remember that God wants us to be honest and to do things the right way, so make sure to check the law of the land concerning hiring and paying for the services of another. Do not pay under the table if it is not allowed.
In all things, we should seek God's guidance and wisdom. The Bible tells us, Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight, Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB.
Let's pray together to God:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Elodie and her mother's needs. Lord, we thank you for your Blessed Son Jesus who gave us life, who grants us access to You, and who is the only way we can be saved. We ask that You guide Elodie in finding an honest and skilled handyman who will complete the tasks with integrity and at a reasonable cost. We trust you in this, for we know that you care for us and you will not leave us without a solution. Please give Elodie patience, wisdom, and discernment as she makes this decision. We rebuke any person who may come in the name of a handyman to take advantage of Elodie or her mother. Lord if you convince someone to answer this call to service then please make that person also aware of your goodness, your love for them, and your salvation. May they not only be a blessing to Elodie and her mother, but may they also be blessed and come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ if they do not already know Him. All this we ask in Jesus Christ precious name.
Elodie, while you wait and we believe in God's provision, let's also remember the words of the Apostle Paul, For it is written, “You shall not muzzle the ox when it treads out the grain.” Is it for the oxen that God cares, 1 Corinthians 9:9 WEB. This reminds us that laborers deserve their wages. Be prepared to pay a fair wage as well for the services rendered. God cares for the oxen and the workers as well.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will in all things and to be patient. God's timing is perfect, and He will provide a way when there seems to be no way.
