Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Texas

House Foreclosure

Mortgage Co. has filed an aplication to forclose on my home and put it up for sale. The letter certified to me states I may employ an attorney to file a written response with the county court clerk by a date and time specified otherwise the court may grant an application for forclosure sale on my home. It is difficult to afford a lawyer for me and am looking for any options available to me. What can I do? All and any advice is appreciated, thankyou.
