Frustration and Consolation

Pastor,I`m tired,I don`t think I can take this anymore;it`s not fair to me as a lady. I`m tired and sick of searching for job that is elusive as rain in drought, I don`t think there is a place for honest and righteous people in this present world, I can`t imagine toiling and roving round the street for four years with a degree that does nothing; Take or leave it ,It is nauseating and depressing, This appalling situation is demoralizing, Anymore of this can send me into abyss of no return; It`s not fair for employers to be demanding; outrageous demands,which are unorthodox to professionalism,before given employment; To me, the world has gone upside down, crazy and cold... As a lady,I can`t lose my dignity for a piece of meat which is rightfully mine, for me to stoop so low and beg to be defiled, never! Daughter,I know it`s not easy,please endure, and have faith,tarry a little while. I know that your present situation is tough and annoying, It`s not easy for a dignified and sincere lady like you in a lawless,corrupt and egocentric society like ours, Please,hold on to your faith,don`t lose it Endure!,for your heavenly father sees all these, And HE will reward you accordingly and as soon as possible; Have faith in Him that can destroy and create, Have faith in Him that detests sin and loves righteousness Have faith in Him that does not abandon his own, Have faith in Him that has the key of life and death, Tarry a little,He will surely surprise you and reward you, While you are here on the surface of the earth.
