Prayer at The Chapel

Anonymous

Good evening. It is 1:08am in Arizona. I am not able to sleep….I used to live in Round Lake Beach, Il and attended The Chapel for Sunday services with my wife and daughter. Sadly we moved from Illinois to California in 2009 and then to Arizona in 2024. I was together with my wife for 30 years. After we moved to Arizona she divorced me one year later and I moved back to Illinois, but am out in Arizona tonight visiting my daughter of 25 years of age. I am now without a home, without a job, without a car, money is dwindling fast. I’m sleeping on the floor and couches and basements, bouncing around from family to family from state to state. I am in need of financial assistance. I never once prayed for money from God before a few months ago. I have asked for very little from God and even then He has never said yes to any of my prayers. Not one single time since I was a child. I am 55 years old and even though He never said “yes” to anything, I still try because I believe He is there but I am struggling and hope He sees me. All I ask is for someone else to reach out to God for me. To ask that He listen and see how much I am struggling since the divorce. I am so tired of crying because I am having to be living off family and things are just not getting better. All I ask is God answer my prayer for help. I feel I am dying out here. Thank you so much. I hope He will listen to someone else because I feel He isn’t listening to me. I HATE asking God for money but I am in serious need. All I need is for Him to answer me, not with the quiet stillness I have been getting but a genuine answer where everything is clear. A job offer or a way to earn money or some kind of small windfall just to get me out of my families house and on my own. I feel like a failure. Please….
