Turns out, both churches and good jobs are hard to find.

Friday after the morning show I learned my position was being eliminated.  That hurt.  I didn't see it coming, but I wasn't surprised given the volatility of radio. 

So now what?  We're taking a long vacation!

We had planned to visit my family in Nebraska next week, but now we're leaving a few days earlier.  We'll have lots of time for family bonding and zero stress. 

Do you ever just know, know, know like the back of your hand that you're meant for good things?  That you're meant for more than you're currently doing?  That there are awesome plans in store?  All of the above for me.  These silly little hiccups along the way are just small interruptions that may not be interruptions at all.  They're probably just part of God's process and they will lead to ultimate good.  God ain't stressed. 

So I'm going to be happy about this job loss.  I have other projects to work on in my home studio, and several other new and exciting things that have appeared in the pipeline in the past three days.  There's already an interview lined up tomorrow.

Angela said to me a few years ago during a difficult period, "You know, the more you enjoy this time the more you trusted God."  I love the past tense.  This period will end, and when I look back on it I will have trusted God and I can feel good about that.  If I don't trust and I complain and think negative thoughts, I'll feel bad when it's over, like I shoulda trusted!  So that's that.  I'm trusting.

I think God likes it when we're standing on a big scary tree limb and we have to trust or fall.  God has our undivided attention.  Anything else you want to tell me God?  Listening.
