Struggling with Financial Anxiety

This past year has really taken a toll on my finances, and I’m feeling pretty stressed about it all. I have around $5,000 in credit card debt that’s looming over me, and it feels like no matter how hard I try, I just can’t seem to make a dent in it. My monthly bills are piling up, and there were some unforeseen expenses that really knocked the wind out of my budget. Honestly, I feel exhausted just thinking about next month’s expenses and how I’m even going to manage it. I have a job interview coming up on Friday that I’m really hoping will be a good financial breakthrough for me, but at the same time, I feel uncertain about the outcome. Please pray that I find peace in this waiting period and trust that God will provide for me. I also want to be a good steward of what I do have and be able to contribute generously when I can. Just feeling overwhelmed right now, so any prayers for clarity and provision would mean the world to me.
