Much of the time I would like to quit my job. It's too hard and I'm tired. Then I see something like this and I'm reminded again how fortunate I am:

1Co 13:13 And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Very moving. I know sometimes I get stuck in my own problems but I should be thankful for what I do have. Watching this does make me more thankful and more aware of the needs of others than of my own. Life could be a lot worse than what it is.

I use YouTube to unwind and to stay in touch with reality everyday.

Yep, gave me a reality check. :'(

I join this post in thankfulness to God for all my blessings.
On past travelings I have had to sleep rough for days, and work on big ugly factories for short periods of time (had to plan my way out even when the pay was fine); I know it was just a glimpse of what people suffer for years, and I can assure that it's much worse to go trough things like that (like the videos) without enough spiritual strength to handle it. Still with time people usually can get used, even to very harsh routines.
One thing to consider is that we all have different resistance and capacity to handle different situations and God knows exactly even the number of our hairs.
I am a firm believer that spiritual starvation is much of a worse disease than physical (I am not saying we should not help when the opportunity is presented), just remembering priorities.

Keep everything in perspective.

I have been praying to find a way out of my job. They've know I want to leave but have not been able to find a replacement.
This morning I started training a new guy who will replace me. I hope he works out.
It's a load off my mind and a little scary at the same time. I have bills and kids and grandchildren that I help. Now I need to find something to do that will make some money and not be so taxing.
I have a few ideas for software but it's hard to know what to pursue.
So once again I need your prayers please.
-
I hope it works out too Dennis. Praying for you.
Bless you

As a young man I can tell that finding something to do that will make some money and not be so taxing, and that
is somewhat honest is a very hard thing to do.
Since a little while ago I do some graphic/web design and have been trying to build a more stable personal bussines of artisan welding; I enjoy working outside and have been trying to somehow intent some balance.
Wish you the best, and will keep you in my prayers.

If I were a young man again this would not be a problem because I could handle the stress. But at my age stress can kill me. I'm certainly not going to die for these people.
I'm a very good computer programmer and I have sold computer software in major retail stores and on the internet in the past. I'm looking for a new need to fill.
If anyone has any ideas for a software a utility I'd like to hear it. It doesn't matter if someone else has the program if it is junk or overpriced. But if someone has a good program at a reasonable price then it does not make sense for me to compete.
I own ObamaShare.com and Obama-Share.com and have been thinking about a web site that allows companies to share employees so the employees can work more than 29 hours a week and avoid Obama-Care. But my heart is not in it. Let me know if any of you have expertise and want to help make this work.

Hi Dennis,
I will be praying for your needs and relief from unhelpful stress.
One area that interests me at present is how to live with Windows 8.
I just purchased a new Dell and cannot find any real dumbed down guides to help me with it.
Now that everything has to be done via the internet, no disks or manuals with the system, I find myself getting into expensive offers that sneak into my system and make it untrustworthy. I try to use Kim Komando's advice, but one needs to use care there also.
So with the explosion of hand held devices, even for the older generation, maybe there is a need that could be satisfied.
Warm regards, Indiana Bob age 78

Hi Dennis,
I tried to access the two websites you included in your last post, but neither one is working.
I have an idea for a business, but it does not include developing computer software. It does have to do with building websites. I would like to discuss it with you if you think you might be interested.
I will be praying for you also.

Neither url is being used. I just own them.
Please send me a PM Roger.

Any ideas for a Droid will help too.

I think I have something to work on - Should take me about 3 months (I hope no more than that). I'll show it here when it's done.
I really appreciate your prayers.
-
cool.
-
That didn't take long Denis, glad God listens to us. Hope it works out well for you.
-
Sounds good Dennis. I also like Greg hope it works out well for you and look forward to seeing.
I continue to pray for you.
Pro 16:3 Commit your work to the LORD, and your plans will be established.
Wishing you love, light, and blessings always
