God is Good All The Time!

I was laid off at the end of January. The first thing that I did was send out a ton of prayer requests to as many people that I could think of. Then I spent 6 weeks looking for a job. During that time, I considered all of the things I may have to do just to gain employment during these tough economic times. I acknowledged I may have to move, or commute up to an hour each way like so many people in this area do. I considered a reduced income or change in profession all together. During this time, my previous employer was still paying me a severance. At first, I was tempted to stop tithing and contributing to the building fund as this level of giving usually left me with very little at the end of the month and if my severance ran out before I found another job, I would be in a sticky wicket indeed! But I decided to be faithful in my giving and God rewarded me with a fantastic job at a great company in Germantown just a few buildings down from my last job, so I actually cut 10 seconds off my commute. God is good all the time!!
