Hope, Faith, Inspiration, Courage, Strength

You have to have HOPE to get though your difficult times in life.

FAITH To believe you will make it

You need INSPIRATION to find HOPE, FAITH, COURAGE and STRENGTH

You need COURAGE to deal with what life is throwing at you.

STRENGTH will get you through another day.

We all have these things in ourselves, we just need to find it. You are not alone and as long as you are here you will never be alone. There are people here who will pray for you, who will point you in the right direction and who will stand by your side helping you every step of the way.

There are wonderful people here

Elaine of TSA, Who ~ Knew, Ekikaseven, and Soulight 

are the most helpful and wonderful people. Together we can help you find the assistance you need, pray you have the strength and courage to make it another day, and encourage you to take the steps to help yourself.

I can not help you financially, I can not do what these wonderful people do everyday. But I can help you learn to be more self sufficient, and I can help you find the HOPE, FAITH, INSPIRATION, COURAGE, and STRENGTH that you will need to climb the mountain in front of you.

With Love in my heart,

iis anyone readning my posts i haven't got an responds  am a caring,kind hearted person that just needs some help i am  disabled and low income anyone know of any help i am in need of help i can't pay 900.00 that is back owed for my car does anyone know of any programs that can help

    In desperate need of help! For the past two years I have been having problems out of my now 14yr old son.  My older son was shot five times because, my 14yr old had a charlie horse and kicked dirt on a young man's pants while they were at a park. Since then he has been acting out. I have have went above and beyond trying to get help and conseling for him. He was on the honor role and started receiving failing grades because he refused to gto school. I have went as far as filing an ungovernable petition to have him court ordered to go to school, stay from certain places and so-called friends. As a mother of four young men I try to be firm, but fair. My requirements of my children are simple, go to school, keep your room clean, don't use drugs and Be a Something and Somebody instead of a Nothing and Nobody! On March 04, 2008 my 14 year old son was home after refusing to go to school. I then questioned him about being home once again. He then started yelling at me, saying that "he hate me", and telling me that "he will Knock me out"! I  threw a paint brush at him and  he balled up his fist and said that, "he will knock me out".After being threatned by my on child I called 911 and  I waited on the police.Once the police arrived one of the officers said that , "as a mother you have every right to discipline your children especially if they are rude and disrespectful". The officers then left and a female officer returned to tell me that she was training the other officer and he was wrong and that "I did not have a right to discipline". I was on the phone with my mother and I was telling her what the officer said. I explained to her that I work everyday and that My Children Must Abide By The Rules. She then told me to hang up the phone, but she never read me my rights or told me that she was placing me under arrest. I told her that "I did not do anything wrong". She then grabbed my arm and yelled for another officer, he came in and stomped on my foot and slapped me on my neck pulling me down the stairs. After falling down the stairs I was told if I did not put my hands behind my back they was going to taser me. They took me to the police station, although they never read me my rights. I told them that I needed medical care because I had no feeling in my toes and they were bleeding. I was taken to the hospital, once examined I had to get stitches in one of my toes and the other one was broken. I was then taken to PBSO Jail and booked on domestic battery on my son who was very disrespectful to me. Now I am on a leave from my job, because once release I was seen by two other doctors who refused to let me work due to foot, shoulder and lower back injuries I sustained from the Officers using excessive force.  All I want to do is be the best mother to my children. It's so much crime and gang activity where we live and I don't  want my kids to become apart of that. I am in need of some financial help or resources. If you can Help me please send the prayers,financial assistance or resource information to  Juanetta Lewis 182 East 28th Street Riviera Beach, Florida 33404 or email me at Lewis2davis@aol.com .Thank you in advance, pray for me and God Bless You!

I am a mother of 4 and critically ill with having well over 45 + face & Brain surgery's, not to mention all  the other surgery's and medical problems due to complications,
   The reason I am writing you is because I'm need some "Personalized" help in seeking a way That I can bring in a income to my family, I want to teach my children that it does not matter the situation that you keep on trying, I want to do Honest work at home that has no start up fees. I only get $350,00 a MT disability and no other help, So I need to find a job that I can work at home,.I have always ran my own company's . I had my own practice in Sports Medicine before I got sick then I use my Knowledge  in Homeopathic Medicine, To make Herbal scent moist heat packs and eye pillow, I made natural Soaps and Body Oils, and I even Made whole made Chocolates. My 4 children as well as myself would take it the flee market every weekend and sell what we had made all week. Around that time is when all the brain surgery's  started and 18 hrs a day of Intravenous medication, It was bit difficult hauling 4 children all my product and walking with in Iv tubes coming out my chest, what a site that was "lol" we managed for a while sadly the demand for he product became to great for me to make all by myself everyday in my kitchen,
  That started me studying gemstones after brain surgery, I spent 2 years studying gemstones, I did sell high end jewelry on Ebay , but  During a move we were robbed. "long story"  they stole Everything we owned I do mean everything and the insurance did not cover excuse they found a loop hole as usual. Now I have no other income, Please Know that I'm not a Victim I am a Survivor & I am very blessed I have the privilege to be with my children as they grow up when they said I would not live this long "what do they know" "lol". 
    I have learned many life lessons, I can't do much physically now but I do some kind of craft everyday with the younger children,We have done so many different craft. We draw paint, do clay, the favorite is making Jewelry but that is a treat because the pretty crystals are expensive, I can work on the Computer,
   I know the end and out of a how to run a company to having happy personal , they will do a better job, To satisfying the Hardest to Please customer, I keep my self up to date learning and studying the newest trend to the next big craft, I know how to do Advertising, I like being very creative, I know how to do import and export, In my journey, I have been blessed to learn many Life lesson along the way. I have been on the Top and I have been on the bottom. I will not give up and I will not ask for sympathy, I'm not different than anyone else, I just have a few Challenge but don't we all. The reason I won't sell on Ebay, Is because the market has changed and the fees are to high, There only a few ways to make money on Ebay now, One is to be a Huge company that is able to import the inventory, Or to lye, If I can't do it honest It's not happen.
       Oh my I can't believe I just told everyone all this, I guess it because I know if there an opportunity for me to become part of your team I would fill honored and privileged,
   Thank you for what you do and if you have any ideas, Please pass them my way.
        May you be Blessed 10 fold.
             Best Regards

Hi, I am the mother of three kids and I have one child that went to Heaven last year 11/25/2006. That is the worst thing that ever happened to me in my life. I would have rather been living on the streets with nothing than to lose my babyboy. He was born chronically ill. He had a kidney transplant 03/28/2006 and passed 11/25/2006. My situation now is not too good. I am working a part-time job, 24 hours a week. I don't know how I am going to get Christmas presents this year. I am also behind on my rent and my vehicle has been broke down since this summer. I NEED HELP!!! If you would like to find out more information about my babyboy, you can visit caringbridge.org and ENTER: larryjr

HI,

I am a 51 yrear old mother and grandmother of 2 with 8 years experience working with special children and adults.  This past year has been exceptionally challenging personally because of my son who has ADHD and Bi-Polar disorder.  My Mom was diagnosed with ling cancer and my DAD had to have a pacemaker and still only has partial functioning of his heart.  I really need this assistance to get back on my feet so that I can be empowered to become self-sufficient and self-supporting again. I am praying that someone will feel my pain and believe in my abilities to help myself as well as other.  Wherever you are, you are in my prayers along with others out there who are going through trying times.  In Pslams 30:5 it tells us that "weeping last but for a night, joy comes in the morning."  I am clinging to these words because I know God has not brought me this far to leave me.  GOD BLESS!

  Please Help!  Several years ago while employed as a bus driver I slip and fell down the steps of the school bus. I injured my knee and had to undergo a partial knee replacement. The doctor whom did the surgery left screws loose that damaged my knee more severely. I later found out that I needed to have a revision of my surgery that lead to a total knee replacement. My job advised me that my injury was not job related although I had all the proof. I was told by the supervisor and risk management to resign or be terminated. I then was left with no job and no money. My mortgage got behind and I had to cash in my 403b IRA to make ends meet. My daughter was helping me with all my other expenses, but she was just injured and no longer working so she can not help me. I need help with my utility bills, medicine and mortgage. I receive SSI and it's not enough to cover my monthly expenses. I have hypertention, suffer from depression and have a sleeping disorder. Recently my doctor advise me that I need to have a knee replacement on my other knee. If anyone can assist me with a small donation of $1.00 or send me information with an agency that can assist me my address is 1869 North Congress Avenue West Palm Beach, Fl 33401 or email me at Darryl_lewis@bellsouth.net.

Sincerely,

Hello,

Well, i am a single mother of three beautifull children ages 2, 6, and 7. I am not working right now due to my lack of experience and flexable schedual. But I am trying to work that out. I often find me self struggling with food and gas. which I think is normal with alot of people these days. My main problem right now is i want to move but i dont have the swecurity deposit.i will have to write more later....................

after reading other peoples post i really dont feel i should be asking any one for help. i have alot more than most and consider my self very lucky. one should not ask for more than they know they need.

Single mom In need of a christmas angel or miracle worker. I have been recovering from a bad fall and was on no-work status up until this last week, I am now part time as a babysitter while still on crutches. . I am  unable to pay the mortgage for december.  This has been a very scary time for me and my 2 children. They are scared, it is christmas, and if we end up homeless, we have no where to go. That scares me to the point I am not sleeping well. I applied for assistance and was denied housing assistance. They used the car as an asset.. It is old, hardly running and isn't keeping my family alive and they used it against me. I don't have any tears left. I am frightened for what is going to happen to us. My mortgage is $786.00 and I just don't have it.  I don't have any resources left eaither.  The local salvation army says they won't have funds until february for rental help and it is only enough to help about 15 families. On my previous post I needed help with utilities as well, but that has been taken care of through payment arrangements to the utility company.  I appreciate whatever help I can get, there seems to be many people in the same boat this year.  My prayers are with you all this holiday season.

I am a single stay at home mom of a disabled 7 year boy with down syndrome and one leg due to an hospital error during a heart surgery. I stay at home, because of his disability, I cannot find a daycare to watch him so I can work. I do however have a small fixed income including his SSI, food stamps, if I'm lucky I see a child support check every so often. I attend Pennsylvania State College online, and use my leftover school money to live on also. Basically, we get by, by the skin of my teeth month to month. Except this month, I took my car in for an oil change and they tightened the oil filter housing to tight, it cracked and I leaked oil unknowingly and almost burnt up my engine. Needless to say I spent all my bill money to have my car repaired, assuming oil shop reimburse me for damages, but today they told me NO, I couldn't prove they did it. Gets worse, my son has a service dog that is a poodle, last week I took her to groomers, she was ill all night and had a cyst thing on her, so I take her to vet next day. Cyst thing was actually an allergic reaction to an injection the vet said. But she hasn't had any. Then it clicked, she throw up as soon as she came home from groomers. Vet & I agree they must of sedated her without my permission! Mind you, a service dog is calm, mannered, well behaved & sweet, there was no reason in the world to sedate her. Between both of this I have spent my car payment money, rent and utilities and have no money for gas or anything else. Of course the groomer is in denial and refuses to pay vet bill or admit. I am about to have nervous breakdown. They may not repo my car or shut our power/water off this month, but next month my fixed income can only pay for one months, plus my sons service dog is still sick and I will have to continue with medicines and check ups. I just know once I am behind, I will never get my head above water, just keeping getting further in debt until homeless. I tried to sell my blood & plasma today, but they would not take it, because I am child bearing age, what ever that has to do with it. I have collected anything and everything in my house we can sell, but we don't have much to start with and assuming I can sell it, won't come close to money I am short. Anything will help and is greatly appreciated. I have faith in the Lord, he won't let me down, he never has before, and I know he only gives you as much as you handle, but I seriously think he is overestimating me this time. The car repair was $548.73 and the emergency vet bill (thus far)was $302.11. My car payment is $317.00, insurance $66.00, power $82.00, rent $400.00. I am legit, I can prove to anyone, with whatever that won't give out info that can be used to scam me. That's the last thing I need right now.

hi my name is Francesca Johnson and i just got my 1st apartment. i am a single partent with 2 kids and 1 on the way. i got laid off my job that i had for 8 months. nobody wants to higher me because i am pregnant. i have no money to pay my bills and i just moved in my new place 2 months ago. please help me.

This is me with my family,I'm the second to the last on the right.My disabled son is laying on the couch.I am blessed to have such a wonderfull family.They try to help me as much as possible.I can't make any money away from home and they have children of their own to take care of.I have a business from home thats a blessing too,I'm pretty new to it and I feel its gonna help with our future financially,I'm a tuff kid,I don't give up.Check out my site;  www.bestevermall.com

I know there are people worse off than me because I am lucky enough to have a place to send my daughter when I lose our home some people don't have that.  So I thank God for that.  Life has been a struggle and it didn't bother me as long as I had my children but now we will be seperated because I can't provide.  I have been to every institution and I get the same answer, I receive child support.  But see it is like this, the court ordered it doesn't mean I get it.  As of 9-12-07 I will lose my house. I would like to Thank everyone that has taken the time to look at my page.  The sadest thing about this is this: We have money and food to send to Iraq, Africa, and other countries, we have medical supplies to send to other countries, we can build housing for other countries, our men can die for other countries and yet our own government can not supply any of this for their own people.  Next time you ride by and see people sleeping outside, dirty, hungry, cold just remember that could be you. 

I am here to help if I can..I am a true giver, I would like firstly to say always remember to say "I love you" to your wife, or husband and family, because one day you may not be able to..and always be positive, no matter how dark the world seems, there is light there, and there is hope, and are people who can help and live to do so....the door can only open for you, if you are honest with yourself, and can look in the mirror and say I am ok! ...xxx please feel free to email me and If I can help at all, I will .....God bless xxx Peter

I am a student Pastor.  Two years ago I lost my son, through no fault of my own.  His father was very abusive to me physically and mentally.  His family is well connected in his community. They know the courts and some judges.  Basically I stood very little chance.  Even my own attorney rolled-over on me.  My son was taken from my custody, and I was ordered to pay child support.  Over the course of the past 2 years, taking my son was not good enough, he had to take my visitation as well.  My son and I are very close.  He is suffering immensely.  I have been strugling with my ex and his family using my son as a pawn.  It is cruel, and definitely not in my son's best interest. My son is only 7 years of age.

 I am very talented in many areas through the grace of God, but it is difficult to hold a job with all these court dates and such.  I am 7,500 behind in child support.  There was an arrest warrant recently issued on me.  I can do websites, photography, graphic design, and I am an award winning writer.  If you can see it in your heart to help me.  I would be glad to provide my services to you.  May God continue to bless you.

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Jen.  I am a 27 year old single mother of 4.  (Abigail 5, Zachariah 4, Christopher 3, and Joshua 1) I was fired from my job nearly 2 months ago because I left work in the middle of my shift to pick up my son, who was sick at the time, from school.  I've not been able to find work that is willing to work around my need to get off when one of the kids is sick, or needs to go to the doctor.  I am currently receiving unemployment, but because it is less than half of what I was making while working, I am not able to make ends meet.  I am a hard worker when there's work to be done.  I believe in working hard for what you have.  It allows you to appreciate what you have, even more.

I have enrolled myself in Nursing School.  Classes are set to begin January 16, 2007.  I will not be able to attend school, work, and be a mother to my children, all at the same time (childcare is my drawback).  If there is anyone that is willing to provide financial assistance to my family, during the next 7 months, I would greatly appreciate it.  Upon completion of my Nursing Program in June, I will have received enough training, to work in a profession that pays no less than $16/hr. 

My children and I have had a year of ups and downs.  Thirteen months ago we became victims of domestic violence.  I immediately had my husband arrested, and taken to jail.  Finding a steady job since then, has been a real issue for me, since I am only 1 person to my 4 children.  When something happens to one of them, I am the only one available to tend to their needs.  At one point this year, I was working 30 hours a week, just to pay the childcare bill, leaving barely anything, if at all, for the rest of my bills and food.  I have borrowed money here and there, but am at the point that I cannot borrow anymore, because I cannot say when I'll be able to pay it back. 

I want to make something of myself, and prove to my kids that regardless of how bad things get, as long as you have faith, and believe in yourself, you can rise above it all, and achieve your dreams and goals.  I want my kids to be able to see me graduate in June.  I want to make them proud.  I want to make myself proud.  I know that I can get through the rough times.  There's a light at the end of the tunnel, and I'm going straight for it.

I believe in "Paying It Forward".  Meaning, when someone helps me out, I "Pay It Forward" by helping out 3 other people.  I hope to be at a point this time next year, where I am able to help out several other families for the holidays.   

If there's anyone that can help my family and I in our time of need, we will forever be greatful to your kind and selfless acts of generosity.  From my family to yours, God Bless & Merry Christmas!

I will fill in this page soon ,just drafting it on notepad  first to try to shorten my words,but at same time trying not to leave anything out.
