As normal, I was somewhat concerned when I lost my job with the state recently. But after the initial shock, I thought "this may be God's way of telling me that he has something better in mind". I patiently searched for weeks, and prayed that he would guide me.
As it turned out, God made my misfortune into a blessing.
At the time I left, I was struggling with technology which was fairly new to me, and I was not receiving much help or support. And there were other issues that made me feel that I was in the wrong place.
With God's direction, I was hired as a contractor. Ironically, I am back with the state, but with a different agency -- the Department of Education. The manager and I work well together, and he has given me a variety of projects which allow me to improve and expand on the skills I already had. In fact, he is encouraging me to apply for a permanent position (when one is available). A good working relationship is very important to me, especially after my last job. But I am also making more money than before.
God is great!
