Struggling with Financial Stress

I’ve been weighing heavily on my mind lately. My student loans feel suffocating right now, stretching over $10,000, and it’s hard to see a light at the end of the tunnel. Bills keep piling up, and I'm now wondering how to scrape together this month’s rent without having to dip into savings. Honestly, it’s making day-to-day life more stressful than I thought it could be at this point. I thought I’d be doing better as an adult, but instead, I feel stuck. I’m trying to be wise and responsible, but my urge to give is in conflict with my fear of not having enough. I also have a job interview coming up next Tuesday, which I’m excited about, but it's hard to focus with the weight of worry on my shoulders. I know this sounds crazy, but I pray often that I can find a balance between generosity and self-care. If it’s possible for you to keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I navigate these challenges, I would be really grateful. Just clarity and peace would be helpful right now.
