Wg

SWkers increase in pay!! 14-16%!! Will New Life do that? Nt sure.. HR on leave, want to check with her when she come back.. Pray hard..

Recently, Wg really pains my heart. Abandoned by husband 4 years ago, that is how she sees it- abandonment. As we chatted causually, she tear many times. She make a disclaimer, "Not because of him", but because how hard her life is. (She works part time and earn abt $500 to support herself and 2 children. She is also dependant on formal social support like us to support her. But for how long can she survive this way?)

Her persective of how hard her life is trapped her in bitterness. Every few sentence would invoke her tears. Little mistake from her children invoke her anger.

She knows that she is depressed. She knows she scolds her children badly, and she describes herself as a mad woman. She knows but she cannot help herself.

Busyness is the only way to numb her pain. Rushing her children to school, rushing through meals, rushing to work, rushing at work, rushing home again to cook for her children. She is tired from busyness, but she cannot stop being busy. Its painful to be free.

She wears a cross around her neck, so we pray. Only God can help her.

Free her from the spirit of depression, anger and bitterness. Surround her with your love and help her to know that she is not alone.
