Last Friday, unexpectedly and shockingly, my husband was let go from his job after almost 13 years. The reason given was budget cuts (or as I like to say, Bidenflation.) His boss didn't even have an idea it was happening. We had no warning, no idea and are totally unprepared.
Since it happened, it has been a roller coaster of emotions and mini panic attacks. One moment, I feel that surely God has something better for us and maybe we will be better off than before. The next minute, I'm crying in my coffee (or in a hockey rink) because I am overwhelmed and the fear and anxiety is just too much to bear.
Honestly, I'm a mess. In my head, I know God will take care of us. But I just can't get ahold of my emotions right now. After everything we have been through this last year, I just cannot comprehend this. Though, I do admit I have been praying for change to come, but I meant maybe just moving to a new house. I had no idea our whole life would be upended. I guess it's true to be careful what you pray for!
Prayers would be appreciated. We have no idea where we are going or what we are doing. Please pray for guidance and that he would find a job sooner rather than later. And if you know any open jobs in software/digital engineering, please let us know.
