Well, I became one of the millions joining the ranks of the unemployed today. Layed off due to Corona destroying the economy. Please pray for my faith to be strengthened and me not to take this out on my family. Very frustrated and some anger. 2 people out of 8 in our PMO group were let go. Whether by seniority, performance, or some combination of the two, I should be in the top two, not the bottom. Makes no sense. I thought I had heard from the Lord that this was the last job I would have before we went home. Even hesitated to look for other jobs when I wanted to out of dissatisfaction because I felt like the Lord had showed me to ride this one all the way into the shore of the promised land...aka the harpazo and Abba's house. Well, I guess were fixin' to find out pretty quick whether I heard from the Lord or just made up some thought in my mind. I distinctly remember standing, having this sense of a rising ocean and a wave coming in behind me (I grew up in West LA/Santa Monica, so I know what that feels like) followed by this thought that this wave represented the job I was just layed off from and that I would ride that wave/job all the way in, as in my last job before going home. So weary of fighting to survive in this wretched, fallen world. Prayers appreciated for grace, peace, wisdom and provision. I don't know how much more of this world my soul can take. Maranatha!!! Watchman, may God keep you! He always keeps his children and “I have never seen, the righteous begging bread...” Maybe that is your last job, and you are our sign that we are indeed leaving in a few days, I pray so.... :prayer-hands: Watchman, Praying for you. I was also part of the first wave to be let go at the company I used to work for. It was actually a blessing in disguise to be part of the 1st wave to get the pink slip. Got reimbursed for all my expenses, paid for 6 weeks of unused vacation, received a good severance package and then was able to collect unemployment. 4 months after I was let go all the others ended up getting the pink slip and received nothing ... because the company collapsed. I saw how the Lord was watching over me and still is. He will do the same for you and your family as well! :good: Keep the faith. Note: I was going to be looking for work this spring ... but since the coronavirus outbreak ... its obvious on hold, but I’m not worried. The Lord has our lives all planned out. He opens doors and closes them. I truly believe He is coming to snatch us out VERY soon! Keep looking up. First let me say that you are indeed in good hands! That said, whatever state you find yourself in rest in the peace that thanksgiving brings. I don't know the future, but I do know it is short live. Many high Christian days will soon be upon us. If the Rapture happens, no worries. If the the Rapture doesn't happen no worries, He will supply all your needs! I know that it is easy to sound confident and holy not being in your shoes right now, but my faith would continue to look forward and up! Bless this blessed brother Lord and increase his faith through his trials. Let your good work Lord be accomplished. Give him a testimony that will ring out throughout eternity! Remember his frame, his heart and his spirit as you minister greatly to him. And I thank you now Father for the tender mercies you have already directed towards him. Make his path easy and straight. Bring him a light light spirit as well. Let joy overflow in his heart, supernaturally, in Jesus' glorious and powerful name! TR May the Prince of Peace give you peace. May He protect you and your family, guide you and give you wisdom. May He supply all your needs and may He be glorified in this situation. In Yeshua's mighty name. Amen. :prayer-hands: :prayer-hands: :prayer-hands: :flyup: :flyup: Watchman, may God especially watch over you in this difficult hour. Hopefully, we'll be leaving soon. If not, God will provide a way for you. Blessings, brother! Prayers for you and your family, Watchman. God is still on the throne and He will provide. Given everything that is going on in the world, not just covid-19, it is looking more and more like the Rapture is right at the door. Your vision has not yet failed just because you lost your job. There may not be enough time to find another and that would make your vision truly from God. Stay in prayer and have faith that you belong to Jesus. He will lead your path. Hopefully the Lord is just gifting you a good time of rest before His coming! I am looking forward to Passover week. I am thinking this is when the Lord was cut off, and this might be when he picks up the clock again with Israel. Praying for you that you can have peace during this time. My husband's office has been told to expect lay offs too. Thanks to all for prayers. Struggling right now to find peace. Was abandoned by my earthly dad as a kid and this just sets off all kinds of triggers of feeling like a failure, uncared for, and unwanted. I know they are lies from the enemy, but the emotions are so overwhelming at times. So weary of stuggling to make it in this world...don't know if I have it in me for another round of suffering and pain.
