Didn't know this was available - thank you!

Wow, I've used this site for years and never realized they had a prayer request forum.  I think I've only asked for prayer through an online method once before, and that was several years ago.  As I need all the help I can get, I am putting false pride aside and taking a leap of faith.  I know that whatever comes of this is meant to happen, I can only be a passenger while God drives the car. Up until I chose to divorce my husband at the end of 2006, things were going along as I had thought they should (career, marriage, house, baby, exemplary credit) - but ever since making the decision that I needed to do what was best for our then five-year-old daughter, my situation keeps deteriorating despite my efforts. In 2007, I purchased a townhome and had a fantastic job and shared 50/50 ccustoody of our daughter.  Since that time, I have experienced two lay-offs, lost my townhome, had to declare bankruptcy, and, most painful of all, pursuant to a motion brought by my ex-husband, had my custody reduced to every other weekend.  My daughter is now 15 and due to medical complications following herr birth, I am unable to have more children.  While I am thankful that she has a wonderful stepmother and two younger half-siblings, missing out on so many major milestones in her life is the most heart-wrenching pain I have ever felt.  I won't go into the details other than to say he told me flat out that he wanted child support - so not only do I earn one-fourth of what I used to, I also pay child support based on what I WAS making (I could have it reduced but I know that would affect the relationship we have established and would only end up hurting our daughter).  I work full-time and end up taking home about $350.00 every two weeks after deductions.  Again, this situation has been new to me since the past two years. Luckily, I have a wonderful friend who has allowed me to stay in her home with her family but I do struggle with self-esteem issues as I expect more from myself. I am constantly looking for higher-paying positions in my field of legal secretary (27+ years of experience), but the market has declined greatly.  Throughout all of this, my faith in God continues to grow and I know that all of this will make sense eventually, but right now I could use your prayers to help turn my situation around.  I have spent my life helping others in need and just never realized that I would end up being the one needing help, so this is quite humbling. Blessings!
