I'm in kind of a desperate situation in that I, like so many people, am jobless and losing my mind. I tend to struggle with despair and anger anyhow, but being unemployed and now completely out of resources I am starting to give into that darkness. Trying to keep that at bay with prayer and Mass, but it is a struggle. I've spent so much time and energy into school and now it seems rather bleak out there. More than prayers to find a job, I really need some prayer to keep some hope up as I'm sure many out there do.

Father, hear our prayer and grant your son a job swiftly so that he may work to the glory of your Name. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen. Mother Mary and St. Joseph the Worker, pray for him!
