Asking for some prayers and positive thoughts


Posted: Mar 24, 2012

I am asking for prayers and good thoughts concerning a possible job opportunity.  I lost my job at the end of February (due to my own stupidity) and have been having a hard time finding work since.  I have applied for unemployment, however, it is the process of being appealed right now, so basically, I am down to nil nothing as far as a cash flow is concerned.

At my age (56), I am too old to consider retraining for another career field and I was born slightly cerebral palsied, where straight typing is not really a problem; however, using the keyboard for voice recognition does make it difficult due to spasticity.  I have consulted with an attorney regarding possibly getting disability and on Tuesday, was informed that the attorney would take my case.

To make a long story short, I applied online for a position as a medical transcriptionist for a hospital in the Miami area about two weeks ago.  I received a call yesterday from a lady in human resources who explained to me that I would have to go in for training for a short period of time but then would be released to work from home (my home being 150 miles from Miami), but only having to come into the office once a month for meetings, etc.  The hours and schedule are ideal as well as the pay. 

I would ask any of you can to lift me up in your thoughts and prayers regarding this job because if I do not have to go on disability I would not.  This hospital is a church-affilitated hospital and has an excellent reputation for patient care, so literally, it would be the place I would retiire from if I am offered a chance to go further in the process.

I His name, I thank you all.

I am praying for you. I am 55 and retraining for acute care as I too lost my job in February. You can do this with God's help and the prayers of others. Best of luck, sweetheart!

Thank you for all the positive thoughts and prayers -- they REALLY do work. I received an email today from the recruiter wanting me to come in for an interview on Friday at 10:00, so please in HIS name, I ask that things go well, and that I can get this job. If I do, I would earn enough money to be able to move back to the Miami area and see my significant other, whom I have not seen since July, due to his having very serious health issues (COPD and CHF).

I will sing HIS praises all of my days.

Needing Some Prayers And Positive ThoughtsAug 14, 2010
I lost my job back in May, when I was making REALLY good money due to my boss being killed in a car accident and the family not wanting to take on dealing with her company.  I started working for a national and right now, not making the money that I was used to with the other MTSO.  As a resuilt, I  fell behind on my rent and during this period of time, (was asked to renew my lease, but with all the stress, it slipped my mind).  My lease was up at the end of July and 2 weeks ...

I'm not even sure where to begin.  I have so much anger and frustration inside me right now that I am tense and achy, depressed and sad.  I am isolated from adults, only kids at home since my husband admitted to cheating and moved in with her.  I do go to church; however, everyone at the church knows my husband and me and it is difficult for me to tell them what has happened because he was thought to be such a wonderful Christian man.  Hate the sin, not the sinner.   ...

My Cat Is Missing; I Could Use Some Good Thoughts/prayersFeb 09, 2010
I could use some positive thoughts and advice, and since I work at home as an MT, and I'm antisocial (by necessity, almost), you ladies and gents are the closest thing I have to friends and coworkers. Our beloved cat slipped out on Friday night and we're worried because a heavy storm and cold  is on the way. My husband and I are in Chicago.    Since I was the dummy who let the cat slip out (I didn't even know she was gone until morning) it's been pretty unbea ...

Hello all.  I have been an MT for 20 plus years, yet not being a doctor, I can't seem to put a finger on what may be going on with me, but I do have some ideas.  Ten years ago I had a bowel resection for an obstruction and have since developed 4 massive incisional hernia in my abdomen.  They don't hurt, but occasionally flareup and change and it sends me to the ER everytime because Im afraid they may have gotten incarcerated.  Over the past 6 months I have noticed t ...

What you libs don't seem to understand is that, though flawed, Donald Trump's message was better than Hillary Clinton's. Read further down this board when someone asked why people voted for Trump. If you want to focus on gutter speak and negative, stay there. The rest of us want to make America great again!

I Have Chosen To Be Positive And Happy.Jul 07, 2017
As a liberal, I was listening to leftist radio, reading leftist literature and watching mainstream TV day in and day out. I was falling into the trap of believing the negativity and really feeling hopeless, angry and surly. A few months ago, I decided to devote one day to listening to conservative radio, reading right-leaning literature and watching Fox. I felt happier and more hopeful. I investigated the "talking heads" on Fox and thought, "Hmmm, these are some very powerful, important and i ...

There are actually two things in this article.  I am a believer in the second ammendment and a democrat.  However, I also believe there are people out there who should not own guns.  Perhaps this bill was vague (I haven't seen the actual bill), but I do believe people with severe mental illness with violence tendencies should not own guns. The other issue is the last paragraph:  "The goal of the rule was to minimize coal mine pollutants in waterways and would have requ ...

Some Conservative ThoughtsOct 22, 2009
If a conservative doesn’t like a news organization or a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don’t like be shut down.  If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.  A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.  If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one.  If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.  If a ...

Some Liberal Thoughts Oct 25, 2009
If a conservative doesn’t like a news organization or a talk show host, he goes on multiple chat boards and blogs and does everything he can to discredit them. Liberals just don't invite them in.  If a conservative decides he needs health care coverage, it is after he has taken advantage of the system by not carrying it; making payments to healthcare providers who are not in the business of lending money, and sometimes he has filed bankruptcy.  A liberal recognizes that eve ...

Some Thoughts About This Board, Etc. Mar 18, 2012
I respect everyone’s right to their opinions.    We have a 2-party system in this country, thankfully, although  at times I wish it were more, and if we all thought the same, or weren’t allowed to disagree, we would probably not be living in a democracy.    This is my issue.   When I hear, for example, some conspiracy theory on how Obama’s (or it could be anyone) agenda is to ruin the country, turn it into a socialist state  (wh ...

On the other side, Democrats, with 2, not as certain there will be more.  I think Sanders will argue on the issues.  I think Clinton will give thought to the those issues/accusations and answer.&n ...

Firstly, I am *not* opposed to a GOP plan - and to be fair I don't have enough details about what it would and would not do (which I plan to remedy).  I read the following post to get more information, but much of it is opinion - or vague -and did not explain how it is better than the current bill(s) under consideration.  Let me be specific:  OP:  This is what I like about the GOP plan:Instead of govt insurance it reforms the system. 1.  How is the "Pelosi's ...
