Please, pray for me. I am very worried about my future career and my job. 

I have been working since January 2008 as an English as an Additional Teacher. It is my first permanent job. I was so happy for this job but it turned out that my supervisor/manager seems to be a very bad person who believes in a rat race. 

I can't sleep at night, I have stomachache, I am anxious and nervous. I can't wake up in the morning to go to work. She follows and checks upon me at any occasion. I have already missed 3 days from work. I am so worried and tired. 

Moreover, I am a foreigner in the UK, so I do not have the same power as she has and probably that why she feels so confident. I can't lose this job, it is too difficult for me to fine something else. I feel sometimes as if I was in hell, I find it difficult to smile. 

Please, pray for me. I feel on my own. I do not know what to do. I do not enjoy teaching as before. I am also VERY shy person with low self-esteem and difficult past what make the things worse. I have also problem with children behaviour in lessons because I am too soft. 

Please, pray also for my pupils and me so that I could be more strict and assertive in my lessons. They take advantage of me because they see that I am too soft and as a result they misbehave.  I do not want to give up. Pray for me to face it and to cope it mentally.   

I beg for your prayers. GOD BLESS YOU. Please, do not forget about me and those who are close to my heart.
