A prayer for help and guidance
Dear Lord in Heaven,

I am writing this prayer in tears
as it also means I have to leave the Internet for a while
to cut in expenses; I can't afford it anymore...

You know, we tried to live as sober as possible
figuring out how to save some money
I'd even spared food from my mouth to feed my children
It has not been enough.

I tried to find work, to pay for the mountain of bills
but that was not the way You wanted us to go
You blessed us with a baby, to be born in three months
my contract ended and was not renewed

The mountain of bills did not disappear
and now we need a Christmas miracle
or lose the few things that we have in 2007

A court order to appear, or pay up two thousand dollars
to prevent our appearance for a human judge
I don't have it... our celebration of Your Son's birth
will be a poor one. We'll constantly pray for a solution
or lose in 2007.

One thousand patterns have to be sold,
designs that I worked out, a dream that never will happen
Please, grant us that Christmas miracle...

I have to go, leave my dear friends here
I can't afford it anymore, I'm desperate
and leave our future in Your hands

Amen!
