Employment Prayer

I lost my job on January 8, 2013. I have been networking and contacting potential employers, posted my resume on Indeed and Monster, AND applied for 16 jobs.  I have had a few very encouraging contacts and hope to firm up some consulting work in the very near future. 

With the time on my hands I have been participating in the 9:00 communion service at our church most days.  I discovered a wonderful prayer today. 

Employment Prayer

Mary, our Lady of the Miraculous Medal,

you once experienced 

hardships and difficulties.

Look kindly on me now

as I face the same difficulties.

Help me to find suitable employment.

Through my work,

I want to meet my physical needs,

and grow spiritually.

Help me to find a job

that lets me provide for myself

and for those who depend on me.

I trust you, Immaculate Mother, 

to hear my prayers and intercede for me.

I will share you goodness with others 

that they may know your power with God

and give Him honor and glory.

Amen.
