I injured my knee and can’t work. I do gig work and finally landed a job that I would have started last week but I feel on concrete and injured my knee. I thought that it would have healed after a week but it is still sore and tender. So I can’t drive to do deliveries or grocery shop for gig work. The job is a lot of standing so I can’t start. My rent is due. Catholic Charities was out of funds and I am awaiting to hear from others. Just need some advice or resources. If I don’t work I don’t get paid. My fear is loosing housing. I can go without food. I’m so stressed. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Today I am sitting here in pain because I injured my knee and can’t work. I have been out of work for a week now. Rent is due and I am $300 short and my wealthy ex husband sent my mom a text requesting I get my address changed because mail is still coming there. I have changed that address so many times with this same company and they still forward mail there. I’m sitting here crying because I am facing late fees I cannot afford because I don’t know how I will pay my rent and he is harassing my mom over a piece of mail. And the odd thing is he is not blocked from my email and he could have sent this to me but he chose to send it to my mom. For 2 years I have been trying to rebuild and life pulls me right back down. Everytime I try to reach out for help there is no funds or people just don’t have it. I am not suicidal when I say this. But I am so tired of my life. This has just made my depression worse. Just needed to vent I have no one who understands.

I fell and injured my knee and haven’t been able to work for a week. And if I don’t work I don’t get paid. I have tried everything on my own and is still trusting in God. I just need a miracle right now. What Saint should I ask for intercession and what prayer would be helpful? I have only been Catholic a year. And in that year Satan has come at me at every turn. I love being Catholic but it seems like as soon as I got baptized my life has hit rock bottom. I have been trying to rebuild ever since. I feel like it’s the devil because as soon as I get one step forward I take 10 steps back. When I fell I had just paid off a bill and paid other bills. Last week and this week’s work was for rent. I also was suppose to start a job but couldn’t because I can’t walk for long periods of time. So now I am back at square 1 again stressing over money. It feels like I will be trapped like this forever. I tried 211 Catholic Charities and St Vincent DePaul. No luck. I’m just so depressed.

I know that God is with us through the God and bad but I feel I’m never getting out of the bed. I was already in a financial bind then I fell in injured my knee. I have no support system no one to rely on it’s all me. I was trying to do surveys in the computer to compensate and my charger broke inside of the computer. I started a gofundme and tried to post it and was kind of harassed or didn’t have enough karma to post. In those that allowed it didn’t feel welcoming so I deleted it. I feel like the devil is attacking me in every way. I am scared to try to work thru the pain and injury because I may permanently injure my knee. No organization can help. No one is donating. I don’t know what to do. I feel like my only option is going to hurt me permanently. Any advice?

I was baptized into the Catholic faith 1 year ago. A year prior to that my husband left me. So for two years going into the third year I have been trying to rebuild life. I’m finally out of deep depression and anxiety and trying to gain financial stability. This road has been so hard. I have been doing delivery driving just to get by. I’m going to goodwill to help with job placement and career planning on next week. But Everytime I take one step forward life puts me two steps backwards.

I fell and hurt my knee so I can’t do delivery driving right now and if I don’t work I don’t get paid. Rent is due by the 5th. I just need a blessing. I just need to breathe. Two years fighting and I’m tired. If someone could just pray with me for financial grace I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time.
