Friend's wedding/job troubles

Postby Syreth » Fri Mar 24, 2006 3:23 pm

Well, the good news is two of my best friends are getting married this summer. Praise God for that. They're both Christians and want to serve the Lord.

My friend has been working on the campus that his fiance, has been attending school at in Southern California. Their plan was to get married this summer and then return to the college so that his fiance could finish her final year. Of course, this would only work if my friend was on staff and he could get married housing on the campus. However, he was fired from his job this week because of frivilous accusations from his supervisor. He is a very good worker and the only reason I could imagine for him getting fired is because his supervisor didn't like him.

So my friend is going to try to look for a job in another company that provides free housing at the school. If he can't, they will return home to Washington about 2 months earlier than they had planned on. They need prayers to help with the stress and for trusting in the Lord during this fiasco.

Do you find your self worried alot of the time about things that don't always make sense?


Are you experiencing any of these?
• Persistent feelings of sadness, irritability or anxiety
• Overreaction to irritations
• Loss of interest in activities previously enjoyed,
• Sleep too much, or sleep too little
• Unexpected loss or gain of weight
• Tiredness or restlessness
• Slowed movement, thought and/or speech
• Guilt, low self-esteem, feelings of worthlessness
• Inability to concentrate and poor memory
• Loss of motivation
• Feelings of hopelessness
• Suicidal thoughts and/or behavior
• Withdrawal from relationships, anti-social behavior
• Physical aches and pains that seem to have no other cause

If you have a few of the symptoms on this list, you may be suffering from a form of clinical depression there are many sites that offer advice and help.

Thanks, and sorry about the requests being such a short timelength apart. I heard about one and then right away I heard about the other.

As an update, my friend couldn't get a job elsewhere on campus, so he is coming home. Sadly, that means that he'll have to leave his fiancee behind for a couple months. He has to ship his stuff and ride his motorcycle, so I suppose you guys could pray for his safe journey home. Thanks so much.

Well, he's leaving today and the weather is not on his side. Again, he's gonna be driving over probably snowy mountain passes in a little street-legal dirtbike, so hopefully he makes it up safely. Thanks for your prayers.
