Losing your job

The authors of this blog have been blessed to be continuously employed through these tumultuous times. Of course, this could change tomorrow.

But millions have lost their jobs. And millions of others will lose their jobs this year.

Are we ready for this reality?
What if my job is next?

Our fellow High Calling blogger Wayne at From the Factory Floor got laid off this last week. Rather than despair about his situation, his attitude “is the same now as when I first got the job – ‘Trust God’”

Our government will not save us. We cannot trust a political party. We cannot trust a leader. We want the political process to succeed because we want our nation to succeed. But they will not save us.

We cannot hope in the stock market or our retirement plans. We cannot hope in economic stimulus. We cannot hope on the green industry or Detroit or information jobs or government work. We cannot hope in the housing sector or farming.

“ Do not set your hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy.” 1 Tim 6:17

So. There you have it.

Are you unemployed? Where is your hope?

Are you employed? Where is your hope?

We would love to hear what you have to say. Comment here.
