If that is truly all you can do in that area with your skill set, I would really encourage you to move somewhere else.

This is how I have always felt referring to your post above.
I learned today of another horror story. I know a licensed minister, a man in his early 30's, who is now 80% blind. He is newly married and his young bride is having to work two jobs as he does not yet qualify for disability. It turns out his family in Louisiana has invited them to move out there as they have job connections for him and moral support to offer. However, their pastor here has told them he does not feel this is God's will for them. I guess he'd rather the young wife work two jobs to support her blind husband. But she had better not miss any church!
