will not take me where the hand of God cannot protect me.
As I sit at my desk at work, our company is about 15 minutes away from an announcement that they are closing the doors. I am saddened by this because I can honestly say that of all the jobs I have had I really enjoyed this one and loved to come to work. I have come to value the friendships of those I work with. I have learned much on this job both professionally & personally.
Despite the prospect of being unemployed in this economy I have a quiet peace within. It is that of serenity. I do not expect that the job search will be an easy one. I do expect roadblocks & frustrations along the way. I expect sadness & tears for what is lost. Above all I expect to survive & be a better person as a result.
I know that I have a HP (which I call God) to walk with me & guide me as long as I am willing to listen. All I have to do is the legwork & show up for my life each day & trust that my HP has a plan for me.
Its a scary time right now and I do not know what the future holds for me but I am ready for the journey & as long as I have this program & HP I am safe.

Alamom, I'm sure God is doing his very best and because of this you have achieved inner serenity. However - you need some practical help as well. You need to be thinking of things and taking advice on your entitlements if the company closes. What redundancy payments might you be entitled to? If none, are you entitled to any state benefit? Can you enrol on any re-training programmes? Are you already looking for another job? If a lot of you are being made redundant at the same time you need to get ahead and start looking now. Update your CV - you may be able to get advice on this. Just don't get down and totally de-motivated. Use your HP to inspire you and move on!
Thank you for a beautiful inspiring message of serenity, wisdom and courage.
I hear such great acceptance and trust in your share.
This program has enabled me to truly believe that my HP will walk beside me and give me the power I need each day. This knowledge fills my heart with the peace that you describe.
Life is so much better when you travel with a glass "half full". With your positive attitude and your strong faith in your HP everything is going to be O.K. But, you already know that don't you?
Like Hotrod I also needed to read this today. You are in my prayers. keep us posted.
You will be fine just continue to trust in God he knows what is best for you and me and all of his children. Just as a natural father cares and loves his children our heavenly father is that way and more. When one door closes God will open another one. Got a question for you. How could God give you the job of your dreams and you are still working at one just to make ends meet.
Just for me I've learned that the Will of God is Love and that the opposite of fear is Love. Continue to love...love any way and where there is no fear you can hear the voice of God and see God's will more easily because fear doesn't get in the way. I will pactice that with you as you trudge the road of happy destiny. ((((hugs))))
