I lost my job last Friday. Since January 18th, when an email going out across my department made me aware of a disturbing policy change that would limit my days there, I had some warning that unemployment was on its way to me once again. 


So I've been putting in applications for a new job. Yesterday I put in one at a company a friend of mine from church works at. I hope that pans out. Even if the job is not superb, not a long term solution to the unemployment problem, at least we'll have some income to get us through the transitional period.

"Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit"— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that." As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin." - James 4:13-17
