Hi everyone, and God bless.
I hesitated before even beginning this thread, because I know there are so many others in the world with greater needs than I. But I do feel led to ask for your prayers, so here goes...
I went in to work yesterday only to find out that my position has been eliminated due to downsizing. Initially, of course, I was shocked and stunned. However, an unexplainable calm came over me while I was sitting in that office listening to the VP explain why I no longer had a job... and I knew immediately that my calm and strength was coming from the Lord. It reminded me that He is always there, and that He is in charge, and that He will not ever give us a burden that we cannot bear with His help.
So although I am asking for your prayers for me and for my family during this time of financial struggle we have ahead, this is my true prayer request... that my spiritual eyes and ears would be open during this time, so that I might see and hear what the Lord is telling me, where He is leading me. I do believe He has a specific plan for me, as this lay-off is an answer to my prayers, although this isn't quite the answer I had expected.
Please pray for me that I will hear what He is telling me, that I will keep my trust in Him alone, so that I may be led by Him exactly where I need to be... wherever that may be.
Thanks in advance for all of your prayers, they are greatly appreciated!!
Love in Christ,
Pamela
