Your Question:
Will I ever be able to find a new career?
Answer:
I've been a pastor for many years, and I've seen many people struggle with finding fulfillment in their careers. But as I read this passage, I'm reminded that our true fulfillment comes from Christ, not from our jobs. As a pastor, I've learned that it's okay to pursue a career with energy and passion, but not to expect it to bring us transcending fulfillment. In fact, the passage suggests that we should be careful not to put too much stock in our careers. It warns against judging others based on their choices, and reminds us that even our spiritual practices, like observing the Sabbath, are just shadows of the real thing. This makes me think that our careers are just one aspect of our lives, and not the ultimate source of meaning and fulfillment. As I look at my own life, I see that my career as a pastor has brought me many blessings, but it's not the source of my deepest joy. My family, my relationship with God, and my hobbies - like playing chess and reading science fiction novels - bring me a sense of fulfillment that goes beyond my career. And I think that's true for many people. So, to answer your question, I think you will be able to find a new career, but it's unlikely to be the source of transcending fulfillment.
