Prayers would be appreciated in helping us make ends meet on my paycheck alone until my husband finds a job felxible with his school schedule. (and since we drainded saving on my car...)
 
But of course, please remember that no matter how long his job hunt takes, Christ will provide one. I know while I was searching for my job after graduation, I had to fight depression after searching for nearly a year, without a single offer. Yet the Lord provided, in His time, with a job I love.

God bless you both.
 
You have my sincere sympathies during what is a very trying time, I know.

Here's hoping that Mr. CCGR is back in the workforce soon!

I truly know the feeling. I was laid off for the first time in my life last summer. I was unemployed for 3 months. We used up my severance pay and were about to have to sell our house and at least one car to make ends meet.

I truly gave it to god. I even fasted for the first time to show him that I am willing to sacrifice, even if only for a day or two, my most basic need of food for his glory. I really felt like this, coupled with the fact that for the first time I exhibited pure blind faith in him.

I sent out a few resumes, went on a few interviews and prayed. I did housework, yardwork, read and played (too much) Everquest while I waited for God's plan to work out. I also came to grips with the fact that his plan might not be what I wanted, and truly accepted that his will be done.

After all that I got the best job I've ever had. Praise be to God!

I hope God's plan for you is similar. I don't think God likes us to go backward in life too often, so he will present something to you in his time. I will pray for this even before I submit this post.
 
Thanks everyone for all your prayers and support. This community has truly been a blessing. Can't thank you or God enough.
 
I know it has been a while since I posted last, and it may be a while again (at least until the end of the semester) but I have to say that I truly appreciate the prayers that are being made on my (our) behalf. I only pray that your sentiments are correct - that God will grow me through this and that His plan is better than my own expectations. Regardless I am sure it is, and I hope that I see it when He brings it my way - so pray for a soft heart open to what He would want me to learn/do/be. Anyways, thanks a lot and may God bless you far more in proportion to what he does for us.

I understand completely what it's like when people lose their jobs because, well, my dad hasnt been able to get one for a year and a half. Life without the security a job provides is harrowing.

I shall certainly pray for you guys.

 You definitely have my prayers and sympathy.  I'm still trying to recover from getting laid off last fall.  I'm at least working, but I'm at half the pay that I was at before.

Here's a bit of encouragement to show how awesome God is...

As mentioned, last fall I was laid off and my wife and I have taken a HUGE paycut.  Well, since getting laid off, my wife and I have made a giant dent into our debt (our motto is debt free in 2003), and my credit score has gone up from a D to a B (and I'm 4 points from an A).  My wife and I have struggeled, but God has provided and has been teaching us a lot!

No matter how bad things may seem to get, you guys will be fine as long as you trust and depend on God. ;)
 
Oh, I realized that I was late in reading and replying to the original post and I just read through the rest of the posts after making my post.

 Congrats on the job offers and the new job!

...now since you had 2 jobs to choose from, tell them to hire me for the other one.
