Don't worry. Jehovah will help you. When I didn't have a job, my family members helped me. Now, my brother got married and my parents are getting older.  Jehovah is always there for me... 

He will never abandon us.. 

Be patient.. Look for minor jobs first then wait for the job that you need or want. 

 

Be strong.. Trust in Jehovah..

Jehovah is proud of your loyalty. You are putting spiritual things first. Yes, that can make things very difficult, but as sister Jenny said, “Be patient.” Continue your prayers, continue to rely on Jehovah. 

 

It’s not easy when family doesn’t understand that we have to put Jehovah first in our life. 

 

Don’t feel rushed. It will happen. 😉

As the only male in your house you must be under pressure to provide for the family. Don't feel discouraged, brother. Continue knocking and the right door will be opened before you. There is always a way out and sometimes it comes from unexpected places. 

 

Meanwhile, have you thought of learning a skill that would allow you to work online or remotely? I would certainly do that to broaden my options.

Keep on looking .. keep on knocking... keep on praying.. give something for Jehovah to bless..

 

and we will pray for you also

I will include you in my prayers today. I am confident that Jehovah will provide for you in one way or another.

Keep your integrity ...this system is allowed to exist for one reason only ...to prove a Satan a liar. 

What we suffer in this system is a minor “speck” of time to compare to everlasting enjoyment of living, coming so soon. 

Focus on the Kingdom, pray daily to Jehovah, stick with the congregation...

It's understandable that you're depressed! Jehovah had servants with feelings like us! So reflect on Joseph who was depressed too... because soon your family will shout.... "Avrekh!"...

Genesis 41:43

Moreover, he had him ride in the second chariot of honor that he had, and they would call out ahead of him, “A·vrékh!” Thus he put him over all the land of Egypt.

Don't give up!

Don´t give up, dear brother! Jehovah is proud of you, and so are we. There are people with much more years in the truth who might not have shown the same determination to put Jehovah´s matters first. Remember this movie? https://www.jw.org/en/publications/videos/#en/mediaitems/VODMoviesModernDay/pub-dns_2_VIDEO

It might remind you of your situation...

 

Isaiah 41:13

For I, Jehovah your God, am grasping your right hand,The One saying to you, ‘Do not be afraid. I will help you.’

“Be courageous and strong. Do not be afraid ... for Jehovah your God is the one marching with you. He will neither desert you nor abandon you. Jehovah is the one marching before you, and he will continue with you. He will neither desert you nor abandon you. Do not be afraid or be terrified.” (Deuteronomy 31:6, 8)

Do you remember the lyrics from last month’s original song? Listen to it again!
