Dryer Broken

I was hoping to get a new pet for Christmas with my new job coming Jan 2. My brother came to change the dryer belt and he can't figure out why heat went out. All fuses are good. He commented the dryer looked 25 years old. My soul is crying. I am struggling to pay for food. I hate begging for money, but I have to. I started a gofundme fundraiser for new dryer and dishwasher. I was so happy getting a new job. I don't know what else to do.

I'm regretting quitting that shuttle driver job cause I need the tips. But also wanted to finish my cocoa mix jars I haven't had time to do. I'm still trying to sell stuff, just don't have time to take pictures and make things anymore, then hardly anybody buys anything. I hate giving up. Animal shelters are having deals like $25 or $35 per pet adoption. I have cat food left I thought of adopting an adult cat, maybe a small dog too. But now I can't.

Then, a ray of light. Brother said he can check the heating element with his meter and replace it so hopefully my dryer can work again. Cheaper than buying a new clothes dryer. I have no idea what he is talking about, but if he can fix my dryer then I will not stand in his way. He worked for a commerical laundry machine company for years and his job was making laundry machine parts in a computer as elelctrical engineer. Once he said he tested the fire suppression system in their dryers by creating fires in them in a lot outside the factory. He once went to New York City to fix apartment and laundomat machines. He knows what he is doing and I am grateful for it.

I have prayed for months for a new job and in a dream this month God answered about giving free will. I asked if everything was free will. If people survive near death experiences, it that really free will? Evil people succeed and good people fail, is that free will? I begged to have mercy on me, I just want a job to take care myself. I'm tired asking for help, I can't pray anymore. I know the world is a mess, but can he have mercy for me. My new job working Sundays stops me from going to church. I would gladly go to church if I could. God said he would make his presence known more. 2 weeks later I get a new job. Free will, or God's mercy?
