People who kick others while they are down are the most shallow human beings. I'll pray for you and your interview. Best wishes and God Bless You!

We use to live in a kinder, gentler society. In the past 20 years or so it has become the custom among young people to kid their friends in what seems like rude and unkind ways. I don't know if this is what is happening to you. Maybe it is and you are just taking it the wrong way. Or maybe they are just being rude. Again some young folks these days do this. It isn't right and it does hurt. It reflects poorly on their parents who should have taught them better.
You know that God loves you. Cling to that. His will for you is always something good. The right job will come. And if need be the best job for the moment will also come. I will pray for you.
Peace.

If our eyes is on men, most of the time we will be disappointed. Don't be too influenced by what other people think about you or what you think other people think about you. For all you know, you may have mis-interpret their intention.
Turn and see how much God loves you. Know that you are secure in this perfect love that is from God and perfect love cast out fear. The Lord is your provider.
Shalom.

All I can say is be kind to everyone. Smile at people (that is a form of charity). And remember that people backbiting others is a great sin on thier part. I just smile and say hi. HOpefully they can move on with thier lives and not gossip about me or anyone else for that matter:):)
Good luck with you job interview, God willing you will get it:) Keep you head up

Jesus said we are "little children". Wounded spirits, hurting children. They are
hurting, and immaturely strike out and want others to hurt too.
If I didn't believe there are outsides forces that are decieving us and trying to hurt
us, I would have jumped in the river long ago.
But I refuse to go down without a fight!

Who on earth would make fun of you for liking chocolate? Who doesn't like chocolate? Gather ye pleasures where ye may, and chocolate is one that it doesn't hurt anybody to gather! Great Hera! what has the world come to?

It sounds like you have friends like Job had.
Then Job answered and said, "I have heard many such things: miserable comforters are ye all. Shall vain words have an end? or what emboldeneth thee that thou answerest? I also could speak as ye do: if your soul were in my soul's stead, I could heap up words against you, and shake mine head at you. But I would strengthen you with my mouth, and the moving of my lips should asswage your grief. Job 16:1-5

Because people are nasty, mean spirited jerks. There is nothing wrong with liking chocolate. Good luck with the job search, it is a jungle out there. God loves you, that is what is most important.

People who are at a low place always pick on those who seem at a lower place. It makes them feel bigger somehow, when in fact it only proves they are far beneath you.
All the best with your interview. I'm sure you'll do wonderfully.
Bright blessings.

our time is not the same time as the Lords. He works on our problems on His time. During that we must stay strong and remember that He knows what's best. Trust in Him, He'll bring you thru when ur ready. U might not know when that is but don't worry He does.
