Your Question:
what do i do now that i've lost my job?
Answer:
If you have lost your job, see it as the providence of God. Perhaps the job was a bad fit for your particular gifts. If so, that certainly does not mean that you are not a good person or that you are not capable of doing a good job. It simply means that you have not yet found a job in which your responsibilities meet your areas of ability. So, if we lose our job, it may very well be that the providence of God is indicating that we are in the wrong place at the wrong time for the wrong reason. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with job loss. It's not uncommon for people to feel like they've failed or that they're not good enough. But the truth is, losing your job is not a reflection of your worth as a person. It's simply a change in circumstances. You can't undo your past, but you can learn from it and move forward. Take this opportunity to reflect on your strengths and weaknesses, and use it as a chance to grow and learn. In our church, we encourage people to be active and continue to serve the Lord, even in the midst of uncertainty. Don't just work because you have to; serve the Lord from a grateful heart. Be open to new opportunities and trust that God is working everything out for your good. Remember, you are not defined by your job. You are a child of God, and your worth and identity come from Him, not from your employment status. So, take a deep breath, trust in God's sovereignty, and move forward with hope and faith.
