If you don't mind, could you please pray that one of our workers comes back? I've been having to cover for them, but I really need to get back to taking care of my family.

Alternatively, if that won't be the plan, please help with my stress and make things more manageable.

We have a lot going on right now and I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, until I can get things straightened out well enough to where it isn't an issue.

Prayers for your co-worker. I hope everything is all right with them and their family.

Prayers for you and your family. You've got enough on your plate.

I hate that feeling of being overwhelmed. It makes me paralyzed because I don't know what to do first. And then it starts getting even more stressful because I start missing deadlines, forgetting my appointments...ugh. Then I shut down, go to my room get quiet before God, listen to some uplifting praise and worship, meditate and just listen...with my spirit. Waiting to hear what He wants me to receive from Him....and then His peace is all around me and in me.

I have to admit that I am at fault everytime when that overwhelmed feeling comes because I spread my commitments out too thin and unintentionally didn't leave any room for God...I know I have nothing to fear and worry is fear's cousin so I don't worry either. As scripture teaches: “Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”
— Matthew 6:34 (KJV)

I hope so I am assuming they are with family. Weather might be keeping them away. But it's been three weeks now and I was only supposed to be used as a substitute for a little while.

I had plans to get some things done and got a text asking if someone could leave early tonight. I said I shouldn't have been scheduled for tonight, but they think I was. They're going to check but if so, I'll have to change plans last minute.

And our pipes are frozen so the dishes and clothes are adding up and nothing is getting easier.

I'm not mad. I'm just annoyed.

Thanks for letting us pray with you, according to Matt 18:19

""Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth concerning anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in Heaven."""

So, lets agree that your situation will be soon resolved, and you have peace now about it... and get closure regarding this issue.

-Shalom

Fluffy, I still give thanks that God has heard my prayer for you and that He is still drawing you to Himself so that you can know His love and purposes that He has for your life.

May you continue to be drawn into God's circle of embracing love and know that God is your helper and confident and is walking with you on your life's journey.

Fluffy, I have had no reason to change my original prayer for you and over the years I have seen God's hand leading you into His Glory.

Shalom
