Beloved of All
Dear God, month after month we struggle to make ends meet. We have made so much progress on our debt in the last two years, my husband is working 60-80 hours a week and we barely see him and miss him so much but we can’t even afford groceries or our mortgage. When I am torn between groceries for our family or paying for the roof over our head I choose the groceries every time and then I feel sick about the cost. Lately I’ve been barely eating just so the food lasts longer for my kids. Then I get a month behind on our mortgage and panic. I lose sleep for days, I’m not productive, and I avoid dealing with it and it rolls into the next month. This cycle every month for over a year is exhausting and I continue to pray for help with this. God I feel you do answer these prayers and then an unexpected expense comes up and I can’t fulfill what I prayed for and you graced me with. Please forgive me father. I still need to pay our December and January mortgage and I don’t know how we will pay for it. Please God I am now getting physically ill over this stress and I desperately need your guidance and grace. I feel so completely alone and exhausted. God I ask that you grant me peace and sleep for the next couple of days so I have the ability to move through this with you. In Jesus name Amen
