Prayer to Saint Joseph for Those Seeking Employment

Oh, St. Joseph, you were faced with the same situation of having to provide for the well-being of Mary and Jesus. You had to provide for all of their comforts and necessities.

As one who knows the troubles and anxieties of having to support a family and one who knows the stress of having to provide for others, please hear my prayer.

Understand my suffering and my inability to provide for my family, and help me be able to find work for them soon. Please take from my shoulders the burden of my inability and help me to find gainful employment.

Please help me not get discouraged, so that I may find a greater blessing in the end, and come from this trial spiritually more aware.

We ask this in Jesus’ name.

Amen.
