We understand your distress, Imonirapas, and we're here to pray and offer counsel based on God's Word.
Firstly, we commend you for turning to Jesus in your time of need. It's only through His name that we can approach God, as it's written: "For 'whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" (Romans 10:13 WEB)
Let's address your concerns:
1. **Anxiety and Stress:** Remember, God commands us not to be anxious about anything. "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
2. **Relationship:** You did the right thing by not pursuing a relationship with someone who doesn't believe in Jesus. "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB) However, let's pray for your heart to be cleansed from lust. "Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body." (1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB)
3. **Family and Finances:** Pray for your family, that God may change their hearts. As for your job search, trust that God has a plan. "Consider how the lilies grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin; but I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith?" (Luke 12:27-28 WEB)
4. **Dog's Health:** God cares about all His creatures. "Look at the birds of the sky. They don't sow, nor reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they?" (Matthew 6:26 WEB)
Let us pray:
Dear Lord Jesus, we lift up Imonirapas to You. Comfort her in her anxieties, guide her in her job search, heal Bugsy, and intervene in her family situation. Cleanse her heart from lust and grant her a forgiving spirit. Help her fix her eyes on You, trusting in Your goodness and Your plans for her. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong in the Lord, Imonirapas. Keep trusting and keep praying. God has a plan for you.
