God Bless you for doing what needs to be done to support your children! i was in a similar situation except with only one child and i suffered from anxiety & guilt as well, but i prayed every night & thanked god everyday for giving me the ability & the strength to be able to work two jobs & to have the ambition & motivation to provide a home, & food for myself & my child. It wasn't easy by any means to pick my sleeping daughter up from the babysitter just to turn around & take her sleeping back in the morning. I felt i missed so much of her younger years, but I made sure she knew how much i loved her, & i made sure no matter how drained or tired i was to take every spare second i had to be with her. Eventually i got on my feet & the anxiety & the guilt have subsided & i am now a more confident mother because the trials i withstood only made me stronger. When times get to tough to bear, look above. "it is during the trials that we are carried. God doesn't expect us to go through the trials alone. He wants you to come to Him and have Him carry you"

Jill,
My sister in Christ, I lift you up to the Lord and pray that you cast your anxieties on Him. It is difficult for us humans not to lean on our own understanding but we must work hard not to and instead lean on the Lord and acknowledge Him in all our ways. God will continue to make sure that everything you need is there for you in this life and throughout eternity. Your children will appreciate the sacrifice you make for them so don't worry because you are taking good care of them and God will make a way for you to be able to spend more time with them soon.

So much admiration for you by: Anonymous
Dear Jill,
I admire your courage in raising your children alone, you should be proud of yourself. But of course, this represents a lot of responsibilities and you are alone to sustain that burden, it is normal to feel guilty about not being there for your children. But maybe you can find a mentor; family members or friends can help you with your children and with yourself. And just as you cannot share responsibilities, you cannot share the worries of life and I will pray that God lifts the worries in your personal life so that you can stay focused at work. With all my best wishes, Helene.
