Please pray for me and that I get some work


Posted: Jul 14, 2014

I really don't know what to do.  A couple months ago I wrote that I lost an account to EMR, asked for prayers that some work would come in.  I forget how long after that I received an email that someone had some extra work for me.  I declined because at that time my work had picked up and I had more than I could handle.  Now I'm back in the same boat.  No jobs coming in for days (maybe 1 or 2 here and there).  I've seen my pay check drop in half within just a year and now it seems to be getting worse and I've got bills coming due.

I'm the only income my family has.  I have no family I can turn to for help.  I fear if something doesn't pick up soon we will lose everything.  I have 16 years experience in this field.  I've done every specialty except pathology, worked in clinics and in hospitalis.  I've worked the early shift, late shift.  I've worked holidays so people with young children could enjoy the days off and I've worked 7 days in a row for weeks at times.  Before becoming an MT I worked as an administrative assistant for many years supporting high level executives.  I went to college and became an MT because at that time it was a great field to get into, now I find myself struggling to get some jobs in at my company I've been with for so long and I don't know what I'm going to do.  If anyone out there would keep me in their prayers I will be so thankful.

Many of us are having a hard time right now, but it will pass. It's hard to believe it, because sometimes so much negative stuff happens at 1 time and once can feel overwhelmed.

I don't know what state you are in or if you belong to a church, but there is help.

I pray the Lord will send you the help you need and give you PLEASANT surprises during this time.

This too shall pass.....,

I feel so bad for you. The changes in the transcription field has really been hard on a lot of people. I know the Lord has a plan for you, though, if you hang on and lean on him. I am praying for you right now.

Please pray for myself and my husband.  We need prayers and answers deperately.  I have been working at home for a transcription company for the past 3 years.  There are almost $6,000.00 behind on my pay.  I continue to work for them because I have not been able to find anything else.  The reason I am working is to help pay for my husband's expensive numerous medications.  He has Parkinson disease and other medical conditions.  Our life is extremely hard.& ...

I would like to ask for prayer.  I was outsourced from a very nice job and I cannot believe that it has happened to me again.  I have over 25 years' experience.  Please pray that I can handle this again.  I worked for over 10 years at home and made almost nothing, had to work 3 jobs, etc., and I finally found a good-paying job.  I am extremely afraid that I cannot go back to the back-breaking working 3 jobs just to make ends meet.  I want one job at one set sh ...

My heart is just aching and I am feeling so lost at the moment.  I am asking for prayers for clarity as I honestly do not know what to do?...  My fiance (well ex as of today) was out of work for a year and a half after being laid off from the sheriff office.  He searched daily for a job during that time and now has found work with another sheriff office, which is good for him.   During that time, I worked my fingers to the bone just trying to keep us afloat.  Sadly ...

I was just informed that my client has now moved to EMR.  For a week I've had one job here and there.  I've been doing their transcription for 8 years.  I am the only income for my family.  I don't know what I'm going to do. Please pray I get some work.  I don't know how else to say it.  I'll do whatever it takes.  I don't know what I'm going to do.  Just feel like I've been kicked in the stomach. ...

I'm sitting writing this through tears.  I don't know what to do.  I will try and not make this long.  My work has been steadily declining and at an alarming fast rate.  I wake up and there are no jobs available.  Through the day I am lucky if I get 5 or 6 jobs.  Then about 5 or so minutes before my shift ends jobs start coming in.  By this time I am so totally exhausted from worry of no work, and I have olbigations at night that I just can't si ...

I have had swelling in my ankles and feet and legs as well as my abdomen. Have gained an awful amount of weight suddenly. I have a heart problem, but I really think I am going into congestive heart failure. I am scared. I went to my doctor last week and he did blood work which showed I had low potassium at 3. I have had dark circles under my eyes for a while, more common than usual. He also had me have a CT scan of my abdomen and an echocardiogram. I have not heard back from those. ...

Better Pray About ThisOct 29, 2016
Okay better be praying Obama doesn't pardon Clinton by an executive order or something and he only has a few months left remember. It would not surprise me if that didn't happen. Maybe even Uma Abadin. I could have told you all that Uma Abadin was Muslim and involved with the Muslim Brotherhood. Makes me wonder if anyone reads the news or listens to it. Most seem to wait till last minute on these candidates. ...

Please Pray For My DadOct 18, 2015
My dad is having an angiogram on his leg this Thursday to see if they can put stents in to open blockages and get some blood flow back to his foot which has an ulcer that is getting worse and will only get better if they can increase circulation to the area. He is in his late 80s and I am really worried that he will lose his foot if they are not able to stent the blockages for some reason, which would be devastating for him. Thank you so much! ...

After visiting several online sites, I am relieved to know that so many Americans, both Democrats and Republicans, GET IT.  They understand the significance of what happened tonight, and they KNOW that Obama and the Democrats just sold out the citizens of this country in a huge way.  They understand that if this monstrous, unconstitutional bill is allowed to stand, their children and grandchildren will carry a heavy burden indeed.  It's unfortunate that so many post ...

Mrs. Montgomery is the mother of one of my best childhood friends.  We lived two houses apart during middle and high school.  We used to have sleep-overs and were pretty inseparable for a good number of years.
