Jobs and prayers and blessings

My husband got a new job at the beginning of the year. It was such a gift to us, him, and to our relationship. 

My husband was able to strike up a deal with his previous employer and still work on a contract basis from home. It was such a gift to us. A blessing. A huge fortification and boost to our finances. 

We finally got a budget in order. A realistic budget that works!! One that we can stick to and feel accomplished! We determined to finally start chipping away at debts.

But then today he gets a call from his boss. Everyone in their department, nationwide has just been laid off. His boss included. The COO included. It is a huge deal. His boss already has passed along my husband's info to the few people he suspects will be doing the majority of marketing now with high recommendations. 

Ugh. I feel like we finally got out from drowning financially. I really don't want to fall back in that water.

However, I am optimistically overwhelmed. I am so grateful that my husband found his new job when he did. It was a blessing and an answer to the most sincere, faithful prayer I could muster. I am so grateful that he consistently works hard day AND night for us. And I am so grateful that his boss passed along his info. Now I will be praying, and praying lots that they will think of us and continue to use my husband's services.
