Frens, I lost my job in January 2021 due to projects being shuttered in anticipation of the economy the resident would usher in. I've since applied for hundreds of jobs with no success.
I had a few jobs that I was accepted for on the condition that I get the clot shot. I subsequently informed them that I will never get it even if it costs me everything.
I'm lucky to be married to a wonderful women that shares the same sentiments but after almost a year of being unemployed and burning through savings, our financial state is declining. I've done odd and end jobs during this time but the ship is steadily sinking.
I trust God with all of my heart and fully understand the power of prayer. We could really use your prayers right now.
Dear Precious Heavenly Father,
These are dark, unsettled times which have descended on us.
God you see that many are hurting now, some standing firm in their convictions, trusting that your will be done in their lives.
These two Patriots have taken their beliefs and finances to a dry well dear God and we are now raising our voices to you asking for rain.
We here below do not understand the workings of the principalities and powers we are fighting but we do trust you precious father to give us grace and courage to hold the line until you send us reinforcements.
In this time of remembering the greatest gift the world has ever received,the birth of your son Jesus, please remember these two souls as they face an uncertain future and shelter them in your loving arms.
Send the Holy Spirit into their home and bless them with the peace that passes all understanding and let them see your will in the course their lives will take.
As in heaven so let it be on earth, in Jesus' holy name we ask for and claim your blessings for us...
Amen!
Thanks Ash. Amen
Prayers sent, fren. God will provide.
Do you have a plan to sell your home and start living like a monk, while you still have some capital remaining?
Have you explored how long you can live in a caravan park if you grow your own vegetables?
This is solid.
The ship is sinking, find something smaller that floats.
We are very frugal already. The next one that floats would be under a bridge.
My grandfather lived under a bridge in Indiana during the great depression.
You can do better. Think outside of the box, and don't give up. The only way to lose the game is to quit.
Oh My GOD - I can't believe i'm saying this !!! Fensby - "Don't be a Doomer" !!! This guy and his Wife : are gonna come across some great new venture , embrace it , and kick some serious ass with it . . . There gonna be saying to them selves : "Thank GOD" this happened to us , and what a blessing it all worked out for the best ! ( no offense Fansby ) That's the prayer i'll be throwing out !!!
There's nothing negative about having a plan.
If he does the calculations I suggested, he'll know exactly how long he can survive in a worst case scenario. It may scare him, but it'll also wake him up.
There's nothing wrong with living like a monk and there's nothing wrong with growing your own vegetables.
This is the correct frame of mind that he needs to be in so he can make rational and informed choices. It will hopefully shock him into action and making pragmatic plans.
Praying while NOT living within your means is not smart.
Perhaps we can trade prayers? (I've been out of work since March).
Keep the faith brother.
Prayers on the way.
( I think you need to go find GOD !!! ) I love it when - should i say "Dumb Dumb's" - say such a thing !!!
I'm pretty sure your in good company here at GAW. Speaking for my self here - ( i didn't go looking for GOD ! ) The Man upstairs rounded my ass up !!! and what a Dumb-Ass I was. "HE" found me , and when he did : He dropped a 650 lb Red Oak Cross right on my head. I tried to run and hide for a while - but , we all know how that turns out. Sir - "Respectfully" - Drag that Cross. "Embrace It" !!! Take those lumps and ball your eyeballs out crying , pleading , begging for mercy. It just means - "You Found GOD , Alright" !!! "Have Faith" !!! Were all gonna make it. He'll let ya know. Most Likely - it's not gonna be the way that you want it to be - but your FAITH will always keep your lips above water. I'm throwing up a prayer for you and yourn - as well as many others , at all hours of the day - and night. Merry Christmas TrueAnon.
Prayers being sent your way this morning! God bless you and your family!
Praying for you and your wife, anon.

Sorry to hear that, fren. Don’t have any job leads myself, but if you have various skills you could try making a profile on Fiverr.com for some income. (Sort of a more specialized Upwork, generally better pay.)
