🌾 When You Feel Like Nothing Is Working

Today, I woke up irritated. Not just in a mood but deeply frustrated, tired, and questioning everything.

I feel useless. Alone. Stuck.
It’s hard to see everyone around me thriving while I’m here wondering what I did wrong, what path I missed, or what door I was supposed to walk through that I didn’t.

I thought social media might be my breakthrough but it’s not.
I thought maybe an old boss or coworker would reach out with an opportunity but the calls never came.
I thought the private sector would open new doors but every interview ends in rejection.

And I know I’m not the best at interviewing, but I really thought by now something, anything would change. Instead, it feels like a never-ending battle.

Sometimes I wish I had chosen something more “certain” like being a doctor, or a teacher, or something that came with a clear path and predictable progress. But that’s not my story.

And today, I don’t have encouraging words. Just a prayer. Because if I’m feeling this way, I know someone else might be too.

🙏🏽 A Prayer for the Waiting Season

Lord,
I am tired.
I need Your help, Your direction, and Your provision.
We need Your help, Your direction, and Your provision.
We need a miracle, a sign that You are still working.

If nothing else, Lord, show us what to do next.
Show us where to go, what to say, and how to keep trusting You — even here.

Your child,
Amen.

Some days, that’s all we have, a simple, tired prayer.
But even on days like this, God still hears it. 🌾
