I was laid off from my job about 4 months in. It was hard, but I survived with the help of my HP. It seemed like whenever I wasn't sure how I was going to eat or pay rent, exactly what I needed would be placed in my life, exactly when I needed it.
It was hard, but my connection to my HP was strengthened, and I didn't have to drink.
When I ask god for help, I don't always like how it/he/she decides to help me, but the results are always great.
It seems like you are on the right path, good luck my friend.
