The same thing happened to me just 10 days after my 15th anniversary at my last job. I know how devestating it can be, but God is faithful. I am making more money now than I was after 15 years on the job that I cried about losing three years ago.

God is no respecter of persons. I believe He will do the same for you and I am praying for you - for that perfect job, but also for peace about it!

May the Lord guide your steps and grant you the peace that passes understanding as He opens the pathway up for you walk! May you be blessed above measure!!

My heart goes out for you! I know this is devastating news that has blind sided you.

My prayer is that you find strength and find another job soon that's even better.

I haven't been in the job hunting market for the last 20 years..........so I'm nervous. And by the way this came out of the blue....never would of dreamed this was going to happen. In fact 1 week earlier they had honored me for my 20 year anniversary and almost 1 week to the day later said that due to cutbacks my job was ending. Thanks for your prayers!!

Your not alone in this dear sister. I think most of us are all one step away from being laid off at our jobs due to the current issues some industries are having. Never the less, God will supply all of your needs according to his riches in glory. I will be in prayer for you (as welll as others) who are in the same boat.

Hugs to all you who have posted and are praying and even those who didn't post but I know are praying! I told my husband my "AFF Family" is praying for me and when they pray things happen!!! Yesterday was probably the hardest day for me.....I woke up with a migraine that it seemed like no amount of meds would take away...I'm sure it was from the stress of the day before when I found out about my job and everything. Today I'm back at work and packing up my office.... I still have about a month and a half but I have to take down all the familiar little touches I had up so I can start the transition....sound's weird but makes sense to me. So I will be working in a bare office....just the necessary stuff.

Thanks again! And I'll keep you all posted when I find out where the Lord has led me next Job wise
