Now we are completely out of income and no job. So please plray for Amy (wife), Delaney (daughter) and I. We need the Lord to come through in a BIG way.

Praying for you JT. I had the same thing happen earlier this year. My husband has not worked since his automobile accident in November 2007. We have been living on my income for a year and a half. He is in the disability process, but who knows when that will happen - and there is no guarantee that it will.
I took what I thought was a wonderful, virtually recession proof job as an office manager of a utilities department. When my 90 day evaluation came, the board voted to "not retain my services". Apparently they decided I was not learning fast enough because I did not know as much in 90 days as my predecessor did in 12-1/2 years!
I freaked out for about five minutes over the health insurance factor more than anything! Then I started praying. I knew that God knew before I went into that meeting what was going to happen and that it did not take him by surprise.
Jon and I spent hours that night talking and spitting out business ideas that were just coming from nowhere, that we could not have attempted if I were confined to someone else's office. God is blessing, we are growing and being stretched, and I will pray that He does the same for you.
There will be something bigger and better than that "great job" waiting for you!! You are now officially on my prayer list. Please keep us posted how God shows off for you!
