Please pray for me as I am heavily burdened by stresses brought on by financial burdens. I feel overwhelmed and insecure as a husband and father because I am unable to care for my family in the manner I want and they deserve. I am trying to finish college and financially care for my family at the same time and feel so burdened that I have lost confidence in my ability to finish school. Please pray for encouragement and motivation for me during this tough time in me and my family's lives. I feel as if my son is being shortchanged because I can't provide for him the way I want.

Please pray for me to have patience. I just want the best for my family and I want it now and am unable to provide that and it weighs heavily on my heart.

Please pray for me and give me sound Christian advice. Thank you all. God Bless.
 
"Father God, I come to You in Jesus' name and ask You to move on behalf of our brother in Christ. Give him the patience to know You are truly in control of our lives. Show him the way to financial relief. Grant him Your divine favor. In Jesus' name. Amen."

Friend, don't forget that faith is not expecting anything from yourself, but expecting everything from God. He is able to meet every need as we seek Him first and His kingdom.

In Christ,
Paul 8-)

Get rid of any cell phones in the family. Get rid of cable/sat TV. Stop eating out.

As long as a family member is looking after your son while you're at work or school, don't worry about shortchanging him. Children don't need much money spent on them.
 
Place your confidence in God, and revisit everything. Less in a family is always more...books vs TV, making clothes, or dressing up hand me downs vs. Walmart, or Macy's, making gifts in creative ways, instead of buying them. It's my experience that children would prefer to color with you, or read with you, instead of playing with their own toys. Making paper dolls, or paper airplanes. Dinner's from scratch are healthy, plant a garden next Spring...seeds can be found cheap, or collected from organic food. Eliminate things as Poke mentioned...

The manner they deserve is Godly, simple, and together in a glorifying manner...the other stuff is just stuff. This is the best truth I can offer.

My prayers to you that you will be able to follow God in this area. I hope this helps you. The Lord bless you.
