Prayer Request

[Wayne J]

I don't even know how to start, my head is still spinning 100 mph. I was laid off today, basically blind sided with it. Please pray for me and my family to get through this until I can find other employment.

[Mactayl]

We will pray for you and your family, I know what you are going through, the same thing happened to me last year just before Thanksgiving.

[lightman]

You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hoping you find something soon.

Regards,
Lightman

Thinking and praying for you, Wayne.

I was out of work for two summers in a row a few years back. First one was voluntary, second one was a shock - totally unexpected.

There is a plan and a path for you - this is all part of it.

[macebobo]

Wayne,

So sorry to hear the disappointing news, you are in our prayers.

So sorry to hear Wayne. Been there myself in the past. Best advice I can give is (after prayer) to stay positive. You and your family will be in my prayers as well.

[burcjo]

I feel for you and appreciate you. I was in the same boat last month. Keep the faith. I am living proof that He doesn't close one door without opening another. In my case, I am much better off !

Wayne,
Sorry to hear your plight. As my mother-in-law would say " God is Great! I just don't see that now". Hang on to the things you cherish and the foundations for your faith. Don't ask "why", but "What now then?".
And yes we will be praying for you and your family.

Seems to me that God was just tired of the way you were being treated. While it may seem difficult right now, it is all in his great plan. I sincerely pray that the next door for you is opened soon. You are definitely being prayed for here in Louisiana.

WOW! That would make perfect sense in this situation.
Thank you.

You're on the prayer list here. Maybe it's a sign to R&R this week and enjoy family. Then hit it hard next week. Keep your head up.

[Keith R]

Wayne,
I'm stunned, and the day after the race. With your skills, I have hope that you will find a better opportunity. We will keep you in our prayers and wish you the best.

Just know that God is still good - even when things are bad, or don't make sense.

On a separate note, it seems there is a growing need for a separate forum just for posts about people getting laid off.

[dowis]

Wayne, sorry to hear about this. It will be tough, but you will make it through.

[michaelc]

Wayne, sorry to hear about this. I was in the same boat 2 years ago. The door took a while to re-open but it was a much better door. Keep the faith!

[dj merritt]

God is good , Everything happens for a reason . I pray God opens bigger and better doors for you and your family . God Bless you and never loose your spirit.

[Mudsculpter]

Wow,.. Sorry to hear this news,... It has been said in this thread before,... There are better things on the horizon for you once you just take the time to prepare for them. Prayers on the way.

May sound silly.. .but would you consider posting a brief summary of the sort of work you are looking for? Maybe someone here knows someone else who might have heard about an opening in the agency around the corner from their baker's brother's aunt. (it could happen)

Sounds like a reasonable idea, Wayne.
We understand if you have your reason not to post that info, but you gotta admit there are a lot of tentacles here to take advantage of.
