Life is long this too shall pass. I read somewhere of a tribe in Africa (in time past) that had no concept of time. They actually died when in captivity because they had no concept that the captivity would not end. That's how we all are (to a lesser degree) especially when things are not going well. When we are sick we feel like we'll never be well again. That sort of thing. Just remember this when you are tempted to think it's never going to get better etc. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't pass up opportunities like this to gain experience. If nothing else, it will make you appreciate your work in your field of studies all the more when you finally do get the work! Thank you very much JohnD! I'll be sure to keep gaining experience. God bless! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have faith that the Lord is with me and guiding me through all of this. Thank you very much JohnD! God bless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep doubting myself and falling back into bad habits. I appreciate your prayers and support. Please give your input on this. I'm really afraid. Take care and God bless. You will only know that yourself, as you follow the word of God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
