Today is the "official' starting date of my next great adventure: unemployment. Even though yesterday was my official last day of employment, I have not had to go into work for the past two weeks. My position was eliminated due to a reduction in force, otherwise known as RIF. Receiving a lay-off notice was not the news I was expecting to receive on a non-snowy February morning. After the shock wore off, I felt relief as the stress of an ill-fitting job just melted away.
I'm embarking on an adventure of seeking, searching, and finding. The myriads of questions running through my mind right now that cannot be fully answered. So many questions that really come down to the following:
Am I seeking God's plan for my life?
or maybe the question is really
Am I willing to seek God's plan for my life?
right now my life consists of the following: resumes. laughing with friends. cover letters. praying. job applications. staying up late. reading scripture. attending job seeker workshops.holding a friends baby. sleeping in late.watching snow waft through the sky. health insurance. spending plan. praying. shoveling snow. joy. peace. thankfulness.
the joy of sleeping in until the cat insists on getting fed (and then crawling back into bed)
the peace in a outwardly difficult situation that can only come from God
and the thankfulness for everything
