Unemployed…Still

Man, it was really nice to take a break from my unemployment last week. I was able to work for a friend and cut wood for a couple of days. Very hard work, but good for the fat. It was even better to spend some time at my in-laws relaxing and sleeping in! The 4th was a total washout unfotunately. No fireworks, in fact, we didn’t leave the house all day. We made the best of it though. 

Now its back to the usual grind. I commented to my father-in-law that the days really have no meaning anymore. He is retired so he totally understood. Unemployment is really starting to suck. I never thought it would last this long! I would say that I’m hangin’ in there, but that would be stupid. What else can I do? I am truly waiting on the Lord though. I am anxious to see what the next job will be. Will it be easy, like working in a Christian organization, or will it be in another hell hole like the last one? Who knows? I think I would prefer another godless organization. I think I could have done a better job of standing for Christ at the last one. Nobody’s perfect I guess, but I see how easy it is to fall into the trap of not making too many waves. I think I would handle situations differently now.
