Humble Beginnings

Request for Prayers

I'm requesting prayers for a relative of mine who is facing severe financial difficulty ahead.  Basically, she overextended herself in trying to fix up her home in order to sell it (sometime in the early part of last year), purchased land (in cash) in another state (to be near her sister), had a 3,000 square foot manufactured home designed to her specifications for her new land.  She must have her current home up to code before listing it.  Her home is not complete, she used her entire retirement (having withdrew funds early) and is currently paying two mortgages.  She has enough money to pay for both mortgages next month and that's it - nothing left in the bank or in retirement.  Her home is not ready to be listed, she has no employment (as she retired and has not returned to work), is behind on her utilities and now owes the IRS $55,000 (and that's not an exaggeration) for early withdrawal penalties.  She won't listen to advice from her sister or any other relatives (and hasn't for the past many, many months) and is now in dire straits.  I ask that y'all lift her up in prayers as God is the only one that can help her right now.  By the way, she has people living with her that don't help pay utilities or the mortgage or rent or help any in way shape or form.  She continues to let these people mooch off her and does nothing.  She needs help in a divine way for wisdom and financial responsibility and any number of things.  Please pray for her.  There's nothing that we can do for her as any money we could give her would not even be a drop in the bucket.  She has informed us that her last option is a gun to the head (and I'm not kidding).  I know that there are many God-fearing, loving Christians out there and I would appreciate it if you would bow your heads and say a prayer for her.  She needs many prayers to help her through this difficult time. 

Thank you and God's blessings...MamaDuke
