Thanks all. I'm sorry I've been remiss in responding in this thread. You can still send a prayer to the Western Wall for me, if you wish, however, hubby had a lead on a job and had his first interview last week and impressed them so much, he has a second interview tomorrow. If you like, you can send a prayer for me that he gets the job. It won't help us in the short term, but will in the long term. Thanks so much for all of your prayers and support. It means very much to us!

Way to go Chris. All my prayers are with you guys.
Let me know how you're doing. I miss you girl.

They prayer should be yours, Mary. Of course, I can write a note for you and stick it in the Wall, but this is foremost your request to G-d. If you write it, I can't read it, it's like your personal letter to Him.

I hope that the interview leads to a job.

I miss you too Deb. I'm sorry and thanks for the prayers. We've been crazy busy packing up our stuff. I don't know why - we have nowhere to send it - but we have a 3 story house and lots of stuff to pack up and, hopefully, if Chris gets the job, put it in storage. I would hate to lose everything I own. That would be a huge blow.

Talk to you very soon.

Love you.

Great news! Very happy for your mrs. Mary. I hope he gets the job! I wish your family the best of luck.

I'm also sorry that I've missed this until now. I'm not sure which of the Psalms is appropriate for a case like this, I'll ask the Rabbi. One of the other things that can be done is to insert the prayer into the Western Wall.

Send a prayer to the Western Wall

I can also do it if you want.

This may be kind of random but your really nice man. Always praying for the best for everyone. Glad to have you part of the site Miamian.

This is GREAT news Mary. I really hope this pans out.

I imagine you will all still have a rough road in the near future, but at least something on the horizon is better than nothing on the horizon.

God Bless all of you!

I mentioned this situation to Carol and just need to remind you that You, Chris and of course the girls are in our Prayers.

Kenny - my special friend. Thank you very much for your support. We are very thankful we're in your and everyone else's prayers. Please give Carol a kiss for me and your girls too and keep your fingers crossed.

I'm thinking one of the Psalms of Ascent, perhaps 121 is appropriate!?

Thank you Alen. I appreciate that very much especially considering how vicious it can sometimes get in the PoFo.

You could be right. I was also thinking about 24, which is said for what in Hebrew we call "parnasa" which roughly means career and economic sustenance.

Thanks everyone for your prayers and support. After a grueling 3 hour interview yesterday, hubby was offered the job and accepted and began this morning. He woke me up, brought me my tea and went happily off to work at 7:30. He's making half of what he made at his last job, but it's something coming in as opposed to nothing. Now I indeed know the power of prayer.

We love you all.

And if I may, I'd like to share this prayer here. A good friend sent it to us during our trials and I thought it very apropo for any situation.

HELLO GOD

Hello God, I called tonight to talk a little while
I need a friend who'll listen to my anxiety and trial.
You see, I can't quite make it through a day just on my own
I need your love to guide me, so I'll never feel alone.
I want to ask you please to keep my family safe and sound.
Come fill their lives with confidence for whatever fate they're bound.
Give me faith, dear God, to face each hour throughout the day,
And not to worry over things I can't change any way.
I thank you God, for being home and listening to my call;
for giving me such good advice when I stumble and I fall.
Your number, God, is the only one that answers every time.
I never get a busy signal, never have to pay a dime.
So thank you, God, for listening to my troubles and my sorrow.
Good night, God, I love you, too, and I'll call again tomorrow

Just brought tears to my eyes Miss Mary.

Give Chris a huge hug from me....of course it needs to be in a Football, manly kindve way since its coming from me.....

Much credit to him. It is tough to work for half of your market Value, but he indeed understands how much his family needs him to work through this time.

One thing I learned from my parents, hard work and clean living can solve much. When things are really tough, time to work a little bit harder to work out of it. Really good things tend to come of times like these, and my prayers arent completely answered until that happens to you and your family.

BTW: Thank you as one of my Christmas wishes has officially came true and early with this news

Keep us posted please.
