Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

out of work, but not crushed

today's prayer is for everyone who is out of work, especially my friends david and chris

from 2 corinthians

we are hard pressed on every side
but not crushed
perplexed
but not abandoned
struck down
but not destroyed

we always carry around on our body the death of jesus
so that the life of jesus may be revealed in our body

and on this day, dear lord, we pray for our friends, our neighbors, our families and all those who are seeking employment... that they may find their destiny

so we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen
for what is seen is temporary, but what us unseen is eternal

may the lord be with you in your times of joy
and your moments of trial


Amen
