I want to tell you what happened to me a few years ago. I live in Ukraine. My son was 8 years old at the time. My husband and I divorced a long time ago, he lives in another country and does not communicate with us. I just happened to lose my job. The economic situation is difficult, there is little work. I’m in interviews, I’m in announcements, but it’s been a month, it’s been two months, I don’t hear anything about work. I realized I was doing something wrong. I went to the temple. One day, two… Then she took her son with her. Said:
Let’s go pray together, because we have nothing to live on.
And all the time we approached the icon of St. Seraphim of Sarov. I have his icon at home. He’s on a rock there. This icon was given to me by my friend’s mother in memory of her daughter. A friend died a year before these events. So we prayed with our son, prayed with our hearts, and we cried out to Seraphim for help.
At night I had a dream that the Reverend stood on a stone, praying. He turns around and looks at me and says,
— We heard you. Prayer will be given. — And raises his stone. It’s easy. And handing it to me. And this is not a stone, but a loaf of warm gray bread. I got her. That was the end of the dream.
In the morning I received a call from a very large organization and was invited to work. With a great salary. I still remember how Saint Seraphim helped us. And thank him. I want people to know about this story and know that help will come.
Thanks for everything!
