[__ Prayer __] What is my Value?

Angel

Member
This evening I have been thinking a lot. Thinking about what I should do with myself. What kind of hobby or talent should I pursue? I am willing to work hard, I just don't know what that is yet. Then I got to thinking about God giving me value with his love. I started to think about Seeking his Kingdom and everything will fall into place. Then, God reminded me of Isaiah 30:21,

And your ears will hear a word behind you, saying, This is the way; walk in it, when you turn to the right hand and when you turn tothe left.

When I was homeless I left all my druggie/alcoholic friends because I didn't want to be a part of it anymore. Being alone at night was really scary! So, it was then that I started to pray, "God, please give me money so I can get an apartment". I told him, if you want me to go left I will go left, if you want me to go right, I will go right.
2 days later my parents found me and took me home.

God reminded me of that incident today. I believe He is telling me, reminding me of that promise I made to Him.

I found my value :)
 
Dear Sister Angel, I can only recommend working for a reputable company that will establish a work resume if, and when you decide what it is that you want as a career. No record of work experience makes it hard to ever land the job you may find yourself wanting one day.

What is your worth? Enough that Jesus gave His life for you.
Mat 10:30 But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Mat 10:31 Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.

I do not know your situation as far as income, but regardless you should start thinking of retirement one day, even if it is Social Security. If it someday fails, there will be new plans replacing it. Presently to qualify you need to have paid into it for ten years, or forty quarters, and that at least will give you a minimum monthly paycheck.

My dear sister, your very words evidence your worth as they are comforting those who may be sitting in darkness with no hope. You found purpose and hope thru God. Your words, whether spoken or typed can bring life to someone's situation. Thank God for it and ask, God where do you want me? What is my position in Your Kingdom? And diligently seek the Lord, in due season He will direct your path.

I do want to work someday. I am going to start with Volunteerng though.
I'm on disability, and I am not prepared for these things yet.
I appreciate your advice. :)

You're welcome, and don't let that disability be taken due to work. Get advice all along the way because that will support you to the grave. :)
