Hello I've been on board before awhile ago and I lost my children.I keep on having to deal with my past and it affects me from obtaining a good job. I'm ashamed of myself and the mistakes i've created in the past. I just submitted my fingerprints to my employer and soon they will get the results which I don't know well end my job now. I'm tired mentally of hiding to my employers who i am. I am a mother who lost custody of their children because i had an addiction and neglected them Iam grateful and thank ful to the Lord above for at least i see them everyday, but at work no one knows and know with my fingerprint results coming in they will. and i'll probally be fired. I dont' know but im tired of hoping that it wont affect my employment.which i need. I pray that my fingerprints wont cause me to be dismiss from my employment and i ask please help me pray for this if it be in God's will.
thank you for listening I hope someone is -I feel unworthy

Dear Lord,

i ask for your guidance in Julie's life, at work and at home. We all have fallen short of the glory of You, but through you and your love we are able to be forgiven and start over with you. All of us humans are struggling with the fact that we are sinners, and other sinners are not willing ot forgive us as You are. I ask you Lord that you may stand by Julie and that if this is not where you want her to be that you give her a job that not only supports her finacial needs, but that is full of Christians that will see that she now has you and her past is not a part of who she is with you Lord. We ask that you give her the strength to face everyday head on and head held high for she knows and loves you, the one true savorior. Be with her Lord and help her to remember that even though the road looks bad now, your plan will soon be seen.

We thank you Lord and ask for strength and understanding.

Amen

Hi Julie:
The only way that I could see them firing you is if you had a police record that you didn't tell them about when you interviewed for your position. But, whatever happens, God can use your calamity to bring you to the place he needs you to be.

I can really feel your hopelessness honey, because I've been there. Just let me tell you that God's mercy WILL come to you as long as He sees your humble, contrite heart. He came to heal the broken hearted and, girlfriend, YOU are brokenhearted! Now, use your broken heart to call out to Jesus for healing and help. If you haven't already, you need to get back to reading your Bible every day to build up your faith and "put on your full armour" to fight against the enemy of your soul (or you're just going to go back into your addictions). Most importantly, you need to go before the Father and give him thanks for all the good things in your life (and commit to Him everything else). You're STILL ALIVE and you still get to see your kids!

I tell you, Julie, there isn't a SINCERE cry out to the Lord that He doesn't hear. But, that doesn't mean things are going to be great right away. Sometimes, God has to clear out all the crud that we left in our fleshly wake before He can start to work things out. If you keep your job, then let this be a sign to you that God is going to work with you right there in that job. If you lose your job, I just know that He's got something even better for you, but you need to be honest with your next employer during the interview... no matter what! That's part of the whole "obedience to God" thing, and He can work with that. I had to be up front with my employer after going through some bad stuff; but God knew I had repented and changed, and He put all those past things "under the blood." Now I work at the most awesome job I've ever had, and my employers know my past and see that God has changed me. The Father is soooo good and He WILL bless you if you live by His principals and seek Him first. PERSEVERE Darlin', that's the key!

I'm a prayin' for ya! Blessing in Jesus!

Hi Julie,

I know that God can and He will work everything out for you, but I since a feeling of unforgivness on your part. You need to forgive yourself first and stop being ashamed of your past. Yes, you have to deal with the consequence of your pass sins, but you do not have to keep living it. If God be for me who can be against me! If you have repented and asked God for forgiveness and been Baptist, than you have nothing to be ashame of, you are a child of the most High God and nothing is impossible for God to do. God forgive us but we don't forgive ourselves. Start with forgiving yourself and the people who lead you in that direction and other people who have hurt you in the past. And remember if God closes one door He is sure to open another. You have to have faith that God is your provider and He will supply all your needs. But you have to have the faith that He will! Faith is the substance of things hopeful and the evidence of things not yet seen!

I am speaking from experience, God has brought me a long way! I can remember when I first gave my life to Christ, and tried doing things the right way, it was so hard! It seem like I could not find a good job and my past was hunting me. It took years but now I have a familym, husband and four kids, graduated for college and I am still not done! Don't get me wrong that ole devil still tries to bring my past in front of me, but I don't let it stop me either, he wants to remind you where you've been so that you can not see where God wants to take you!
You hang in there God is on your side!

Julie: I'm just checking to see what's happening with your job. I've been lifting you up to Jesus in my prayers and was wondering if you have any updates. God bless you!
