Dear God,
I am very afraid lord. Because of my impulses and poor judgement I am really behind on my bills. I may loose my apartment and I don’t know where I can go for help. I have a cat that is a great comfort to me, but if I loose my home I’ll loose her too. I think you sent her to me and I am grateful, but she is suffering because of my mistakes. Please help me God. I want to pay the people I owe money to because they shouldn’t have to suffer because of my mistakes. I am so sorry I let myself get into this fix. I know my friends are suffering as well because they really care about me. You put really great people into my life and I want so badly for them to not have to worry about me. Show me the way you want me to follow so I can get out of this mess.David - Miami, Florida/USA

I understand David. I am in the same situation. I’m not sure how long ago you posted but I’m sure all is well. We are safe in this Universe and loved. There are lessons to be learned and hurdles to overcome. So although I’m going thru the exact same saddening situation, I remain positive as much as possible. There are ppl that love you and we are safe in this world. I hope all is well for you!!

David, Im sure a couple weeks have passed since you wrote this. I have sent in my own confessions and it took a little while for it to make its way ”up to the big guy”. I am hoping and praying things have worked out for you. I too, have made awful financial mistakes, I only hope you change your ways,for I have not and continue to struggle.Im sad to admit, Im a budget idiot. Things will work out,please believe that,they will. Have faith and be strong! I wish I could help you out and I would if I wasnt so broke myself. Take care David.

David, you’ll have to budget.
Let’s say that you have a nine to five job five days a week, work bar on the weekend, get you extra cash and keeps you busy, and save as much of what you earn as possible and pay off dept with the money you saved from last month.
consume only what you planned to consume.
do this consistantly and you’ll be alright

Remember God (if there is one) helps only those who help themselves.
Start with baby steps.
Things to do.
Newspapers;Job openings.
Even if it is smallest/ minimum wage available. You have to start somewhere.
Important thing is that you keep yourself occupied. Work is the biggest addiction. Work overtime. Save and spend judiciously.
Good Luck Champ!

This is painful for me because, not only is it my problem, but I have a dearly beloved son who is 24, and has fallen into the same trap!
The above suggestions are truly the only way to go!
Discipline has to be learnt from this so go 4 it! U surely know how to do it- just make the decision to resist temptation to go 4 all that comes! its actually a life-lesson -and we will keep on facing these things… UNTIL we learn how to say NOT NOW!!!
I’m praying for my and ur release from the grip of Debt and foolishness! GOD BLESS US with YOUR Spirit of GOOD STEWARDSHIP!

Listen to the next altar call. Deny your flesh and any negative thoughts from the enemy. Pour you heart out to God, exhaust all your worries and concerns at the foot of the cross. Please do not worry about what others think….and tell God….Please set me free from this financial burden. Forgive me God from this moment on, I know you will provide!

David-
Forgive yourself & God will forgive you. Do not give up your cat under any circumstances. If you are temporarily without a home, call the local veterinarians and explain your situation and ask them to find a temporary foster home for your cat. She loves you and needs you as much as you need her. Next, begin to visualize yourself as successful and believe it is possible. God will take care of you if you trust in him and believe that he will help you. Forget the internet and want ads…spend a day making a beautiful resume and have a trusted person proof-read it. THEN put on your BEST SUIT (go to St. Vincent DePaul if you need a Suit) and go DOOR TO DOOR to the businesses in your neighborhood with your resume. Smile & be confident. Spend a day or two doing this and I promise someone will hire you. They will be impressed with your appearance and your initiative. YOU CAN DO IT. It takes effort but this approach always works. Trust in God and heed this advice. I will be praying for you.

Dear David. You have the right name. King David had a heart towards God, and it seems as though you have also. God tries the hearts of man, and in your trial, you have sought God. It seems to me, that you have a pure heart. Even in the midst of your trouble you are concerned for the others you may have caused to suffer. In the bible there is a story in the old testament about a man called job. This man had suffered some pretty serious trials, while never giving up on God. He had some great friends who tried to console him, but didn’t always say the right things. I won’t risk doing that. I will tell you how Job’s story ended.
God answered Job, as I am sure he will answer you. Then God told Job to pray for his friends. Job prayed for his friends, and God blessed Job with seven times more than he had before. Since you have already prayed for your friends, I would say that you are well on your way to restoration. God Bless!
P.S. When you do receive your blessing, be sure to post a praise report!

I typed in to Google…. I am so afraid and I came to this website. I am 55 years old and my life has suddenly just caved in on me. the weight and the agony and depression is too much! I keep getting on my knees and praying and I scream out for help and here I sit! About 5 weeks ago I was in a car wreck outside LA on the freeway and I had no collision insurance. they said the wreck was my fault and so my insurance would not pay for my car. The car was nothing special but it allowed me to get to work and pay my bills. Basically I have not been able to get to work sense then and I am in so much trouble. I have not paid December rent. My electricity is days away from being cut off. Today is my last day on my water bill. I have some food but I am trying to salvage it. I have no family here as I am originally form NC and I am here all alone. I had joined a church aout a year ago and I just got babtized about 4 months ago. I can’t figure out what to do! It is hard to get a job at 55 with white hair. It seems like age diserimination is OK today in the employment world. Regardless, I don’t know what to do. Do I sit here and wait for the sheriff to come and lock the door? I feel as if my prayers are ignored. I am so horrified and last night I prayed for God to take me in my sleep and let someone live who has a family and a life. I meant it and still do. Is there any way out of this?
Any ideas would be so aprreciated.
Thanks

I know what you are going thru.My sister lost her home and had to move.She lost her job and found another one.She was alone and God sent you a caring boyfriend.Her son was angry and God calmed him.
You will find the peace you need and the money to get by.Eveything else is extra.
Stay safe and fed.You are loved and not alone.
He is always there.
I ask God to bring peace to your days and for your finances to turn around.
Let us celebrate his coming ..
Merry Christmas my friend..
