When we get
comfortable in life, it seems that God brings about big changes to shake things
up. He has done that in our family recently . . .
On September 29th,
my Dad was in a group of people that got laid off at his company. Due to
financial hardships, they laid off 35+ people in 2 weeks. The news was pretty
shocking to us kids. We haven't even lived in Texas for 2 years, and our Dad
has never been laid off before. We were really expecting—and hoping—to stay
right here in Texas until he retired.
So quite suddenly, we
are living on a week-to-week basis. He has been talking with head
hunters/recruiters and is already interviewing for several jobs! The very sad
part is that more than likely, we will have to move. The chances of us moving
out of Texas are pretty high too. Which most of us find pretty heartbreaking.

I'm really sorry to hear this :( I hope you can stay encouraged by God's love and presence with you. It sounds like you're in a hard time.

We have definitely been comforted by God's sovereignty and love for us, Christin! He is still in control. :)
