Help me be a Blessing…

EVERY DAY, AMERICANS ARE FACED WITH THESE FINANCIAL WOE'S.

MY PARENTS STRUGGLED MOST OF THEIR LIVES BUT ARE HARD WORKING AFRICAN AMERICANS. WE ARE FROM THE BRONX AND LIVED IN THE SAME APARTMENT FOR 36 YEARS. I AM 31 YEARS OLD. MY ISSUE IS THAT I AM GETTING MARRIED AND CAN NO LONGER SUPPORT THEM FINANCIALLY. THEIR ISSUE IS THAT THEY CANNOT BLESS ME AND MY FIANCE WITH OUR WEDDING NEEDS SUCH AS HELPING ME BUY A DRESS, RENTING A HALL, HELPING US BUY FURNITURE. THIS IS OK, NEVERTHELESS, IT BREAKS MY HEART AND I FEEL SELFISH FOR WANTING TO GET MARRIED AND WANTING TO MOVE OUT AND START MY OWN LIFE.

I CANNOT TRULY BE HAPPY UNTIL I KNOW THEY'RE WELL AND INDEPENDANT. MY PLEE TO YOU IS TO HELP ME RAISE MONEY TO CARRY MY PARENTS UNTIL MY FATHER RETIRES. HIS BODY IS WEARING DOWN FROM THE CUSTODIAL WORK THAT HE DOES AND MY MOTHER CANNOT WORK ANYMORE, SHE JUST CAN'T. PLEASE BE A BLESSING. IF ENOUGH PEOPLE JUST GIVE $20 DOLLARS WE CAN CHANGE THERE OUTCOME. MY MOTHER USE TO BE A NURSE AT JACOBI MEDICAL IN THE BRONX, TWENTY YEARS AGO. MY DAD WORKS AT HOSTOS COMMUNITY COLLEGE ON THE CUSTODIAL STAFF. 

WE CAN CLEAR THEIR MEDICAL BILLS SO RETIREMENT WILL BE WHAT IT IS SUPPOSE TO BE. AFTER I MOVE, HOUSING WILL FORCE THEM TO TAKE A SMALLER APARTMENT FOR MORE MONEY. FAMOUS PEOPLE DONATE TO VARIOUS CHARTIES, I WISH THEIR WAS A CHAIRTY THAT HELPED EVERYDAY PEOPLE. PEOPLE WHO ARE BELOW MIDDLE CLASS BUT ARE HARD WORKERS. AM I SHALLOW, LAZY, ASKING FOR A HANDOUT? DO YOU THINK I AM BEING GREEDY, AM I PANHANDLING ONLINE? NO! I AM JUST ASKING. THIS WEDSITE WAS SET UP JUST FOR THAT REASON.

MATTHEW 7;7 "ASK, AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN YOU; SEEK, AND YE SHALL FIND; KNOCK, AND IT SHALL BE OPENED UNTO YOU: 8) FOR EVERY ONE THAT ASKETH RECEIVETH; AND HE THAT SEEKETH FINDETH; AND TO HIM THAT KNOCKETH IT SHALL BE OPENED.
