Joining the Ranks of the Jobless

I think I am still in a state of shock.

I got the word today that I am to be laid off. My position is terminated. Whatever they want to call it, after July 25, I won't have a job to go to in the morning. The company has been having financial problems and there have been other layoffs. In fact, one of my good friends was also let go today. It's not a performance thing, because she and I are both top-notch at what we do. But we are also at or near the top of our pay scales, and that means it makes sense to save the big $$ first.

I'm going in tomorrow to pack up my stuff and say goodbye to people, and have lunch with a good friend. Officially, I am unemployed as of July 25.

So your prayers would be appreciated. For direction, as much as anything. I don't know what is happening, but I do know that God has provided, provides now and therefore will continue to provide.

But still, humanly speaking, this is just surreal.
