You know, God has a reason for everything. We may not understand at the moment why something is happening but there is a reason. We may never even find out the reason why it happened but again, there is a reason.
Daddy came home from work today and said I need to meet him in the garage. I thought he meant me AND Little Man. I quickly had to get Little Man back into his booster seat to eat his kidney beans so I could go back into the cold garage. But I didn't fail to notice the box sitting in the backseat. I thought "Oh No". I went back to the garage and Daddy took me into his arms and had me look in the car. I only needed to see his radio to know he was laid off. He said 3 of them were laid off today and only 2 are left and Bill may have enough work for them until the end of the week. Then he'll be closing down his office.
There's alot of emotions that go through you during a time like this. There are also a few the could go through you; anger, fear, resentment, anxiousness, pity, doubt, confusion, frustration, and sadness.
I on the other hand only have one emotion, well come to think of it, 2 emotions. Faith and Love. Faith that God will lead us through this. Faith that he will keep us in his palm and protect us. Faith that he will provide for us and take care of us. I also have Love. Love for my God, love for my husband and love for my son. Nothing is more important to me than those 3. And yes God is first. God rules in our house and he is number one.
He has blessed us through everything and is blessing us now. I was reamed by Daddy's grandpa a few months back about our finances and he kept asking how we are going to get money. I kept telling him God will provide. He didn't seem to understand that you can't put your trust in earthy things. Your trust belongs in God. Only he can get you through. We've been down this road before and he provided and he WILL do it again.
Right now, Daddy is home and we are going to enjoy our Thanksgiving with him. We are going to shout our thanks to God and know that when one can't look at another we can always look to him.

I'm praying for you and your family that God will take care of you and strengthen you during this difficult time.

I'll be praying for you. My husband has been laid off twice: two weeks before our wedding and two weeks before our daughter's birth. We were able to go on a longer honeymoon and now he is a stay at home dad and my daughter is so well-adjusted. Not to minimize it but God can turn to good what man uses for evil. Hang in there.
