Home Sweet HomeLESS

Being unemploymed can be a scary thing. You find yourself faced with the unknown! Unaware of how long you will be unemployed, if you'll be able to find a job in this job market and if you do, will it financially support you!?! At first you're hopeful that something will open up but as the weeks turn into months, you start to panic! You try to hold onto your faith and to think positive thoughts and keep looking for a job. But as the 1st approaches you try to prepare yourself for the worst. Realizing you're in this one on your own and that there is no calvary in sight, you don't know what to do! You have already exhausted all your resources and dont know where to turn! I could sell furniture and heirloom jewelry and get less than its actually worth. Of course at times like these it seems that lots of ideas pop up in your head...of ways to make money fast. Ways that are probably wrong, illegal even and definitely immoral! Why is it that during difficult times in your life the saying, "desperate times call for desperate measures" comes to mind? As if saying that doing something drastic or sinning is the only way out of your problems!?! Of course by now you're praying for a miracle because your past that 12th hour mark when you were sure GOD would have stepped in only to realize He just might allow you to loose your home thus ending up on the streets homeLESS. At this point you don't even know how to pray anymore and you see that hope start to disappear. Today management is filing the paperwork for eviction and I'm scared to death. I've never been without a roof over my head or a comfortable safe place to take refuge from the storms and the evilness in this world. I want to believe in a miracle. I want to believe that GOD will come in on His white horse and save the day. I am literally holding onto my faith for dear life. But at what point do I face the truth, start packing and give up? Because I have arrived at those crossroads today! But thinking about moving far away from my home is crushing and heart wrenching. Just thinking of leaving my church makes me want to cry! I just don't know what to do!!
