I believe better life is waiting for you.
Let me tell you my story. I still have these problems but I see it only as a situation which will change my life for BETTER.
A)I have lost my job from the company where I worked faithfully for 10 years.
B) I have some 25 million debt to pay off for the house I bought with NO job to pay the mortgage.
C)My wife had desserted me for a year eventhough I loved her with all my heart but fortunately my love prevailed and she has come back to me.
D)My son suffered with asma like condition who is just 3 years old and could not breathe in the night and could not sleep at all but by God's grace has recovered now and is well.
E)I suffer from slip discs and suffer intense backpain at night and cannot sleep whole night because of it.
I should have died long along if I did not have to take care of my family with 2 little children to take care of.I see the twinkle in thier eyes and it makes me cry at heart.
But I see my situation as a challenge to overcome. I'm younger than you but near your age.
What I have been doing while looking for new job is change my thinking and have positive outlook in life.I am having very positive dreams which will become reality in future.It may come soon or it may come late BUT IT WILL COME INTO REALITY.
Also GOD created us in his own image which means he the creator has given us the power to create and re-create all good things in our life.
If you were working earlier on a job, you will work again on a new job.You can re-create in your mind what new type of job you wish to work on.It will come into reality in time.
Start thinking positively, read some good positive thinking books, internet provides a lot of very very good listening tapes,CD's, videos and mateial.
I found some and have listed in my blog one is about how to change your thinking in life. Affirmations by Peggy Mchole her website destinyswitch.com is a master piece.
Also have a look into science of getting rich.
Do your best and leave the rest to GOD. He will take care if you believe in him.
"Faith is the substance of things hoped for and things not seen".
Hebrew 11:1
Cheer up.
You have lot to live for.
