Desperately need prayer
I am desperate for divine intervention at work. I teach inner city Philadelphia middle school kids. I have two classes. One is okay, the other is full of the most evil, vile, disgusting behavior I have experienced in the 20 years I have been a teacher. I hate going to work every single day. I am just sick about my job. This week has been awful. I need the Lord to perform a miracle in some form or fashion in my career.
I am on a waiting list for a social work position with my school district. I cannot afford to quit my job and start somewhere else, as I am at the top of the payscale and I am single, so I am self-supporting. I hate teaching very much, always have, but that is another story. (I went into it because my ex-husband threatened to divorce me if I chose another career path. After he divorced me, I went to grad school to become a social worker.)
Please pray for me, my class, and my career in general. I have been struggling with depression since my brother died, and getting up in the morning is just horrible.
Hugs,
Trish
We all need to be where the Lord would have us be...He will make a way for you. I think we are seeing what Jesus said would happen in the Last Days...people would be lovers of self and haters of God. Sin shows itself in many forms.
Praying for the Lord to intervene on your behalf. Remember God is bigger than our cir****tances, finances and He has the wisdom to go with it.
Love you in Him,

I will be praying Trish! Esp. for those kids! What a lost generation we have coming! Have you seen the movie Freedom Writers? My dd, 15, saw it and said it was great. I hope to see it this weekend. These poor kids are so lost! We MAY feel lost at times, but we have the Lord to be our LIGHT!
I'll be praying Trish - take care and find your strength in HIM, ok? ~Carolyn
