I'm really sorry to hear that you're having a rough day. It's important to remember that it's okay to feel overwhelmed, and it's also okay to ask for help. Here are some suggestions that might help:

1. **Disrespectful Students**: Try to address this issue with them calmly. Explain the importance of respect and set clear boundaries. If the behavior continues, it might be necessary to involve a school counselor or administrator.

2. **Teenage Sons Not Helping**: Have a family meeting to discuss chores and responsibilities. Make sure everyone understands what's expected of them. Consider using a chore chart to keep track of tasks.

3. **Autistic Son Needing Help**: Look into resources for academic support. This could be a tutor, school resources, or online tools designed for students with autism.

4. **Toe Aches**: If the pain is persistent, consider seeing a doctor. In the meantime, try to rest, ice, compress, and elevate (RICE) your foot when possible.

5. **Cooking**: Try to find simple, quick recipes that are still nutritious. Meal prepping on weekends can also save time during the week.

6. **Spiritual Support**: It's great that you're reaching out for strength. Consider setting aside some time each day for prayer or meditation. This can help provide perspective and inner peace.

7. **Self-Care**: Remember to take care of yourself too. This could be as simple as taking a few minutes to breathe deeply, read a book, or take a warm bath.

8. **Professional Help**: If feelings of overwhelm persist, consider talking to a therapist or counselor. They can provide strategies and tools tailored to your situation.

Lastly, be kind to yourself. You're doing the best you can, and that's enough. It's amazing how much strength we can find within ourselves when we need it.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
