I have good news today.  We aren’t talking politics.  Not on this blog anyway.  Trust me – no one is more relieved than me.

Today I have to say goodbye.  To a lot of people.  A lot of people that I’ve really come to love.  Today is that last day of my job.

Yes, change can be good and bad.  I don’t enjoy either kind.  Change is hard for me.  I like routine.  I like security.  I like comfort.

Today I experienced something that I’ve never experienced before. I was laid off from my job. How ironic that I posted the following blurb in my last post before I left for work this morning:

People at your job may be being laid off right and left. But you need to stand on the promises God’s given you, knowing that even though “a thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, [that no such thing will] come near you.”
