Hi Thomas,
I will pray with you. I thank God for a new job for you. That God blesses you exceeding abundantly about anything you could ask or think. (Ephesians 3:20) In Jesus' name. Amen.

God bless you. Do you have a church or fellowship, a body of believers you can go to to seek help and spiritual support? The time may be coming when believers must hang together more tightly. Like sharing homes, groceries, helping each other. In the book of Acts they had all things common. We must draw closer to God (James 4:8), but we must also draw closer to each other. Is there someone you can go to for help until you get on your feet? It could take some of the pressure from you so that you can focus on your job search.

God has placed helpers and givers in the body. Once you meet these people, you never forget them. They give because they love. Gary and I went through a period like this a long time ago. We were dirt poor. It wasn't just two adults, we had a two-year-old child. Personally, I think it's far more intense when you have children involved. A lady from church showed up on our doorstep with several bags of groceries. She also gave us clothes and a coat for our daughter. In the winter in Minnesota a coat is important. I was in tears. I have never forgotten her example. Gary and I have paid it forward ever since. (2 Peter 1:3-11)

God bless!
Mary O.

My prayers are with you Thomas. I been in a situation where I was unemployed for a long time as well and it is very hard. I hope and pray that God places something or someone in your life where you are able to find employment.

Monster.com and Hotjobs.com are two search engines that I used when I was job searching some years back. I relied on temporary agencies as well to make ends meet until I was able to find a job. In 2006, I was let go from my job because of personality conflicts. The work force can be a mean and evil place, especially when jobs are hard to come by. People are so eager to step on anyone's toes to get ahead.

I uplift you in prayer and ask God to give you a job. Please let me know how you job search is coming.
