The Blessing.

The last couple of weeks have been busy and somewhat chaotic. Between the usual things that keep one busy like work and other things parents do, it has also been a stressful time on the job as my day job had a big company wide “Resource Optimization” , or lay off last week and as predicted, it did impact my department. I did not lose my job, but it will be impacted as I am now the only person doing what I do. Lets just say that the new year will be an interesting one….

Going through the busy-ness of the Christmas holiday season and the stress it can bring, along with that of the economic stress, layoffs and all of that, I found that sometimes we get so caught up in worrying about buying this or that, or am I going to have a job, that we tend to lose sight of what God has in store for us. It’s an easy thing to say (or write) but a hard thing to do.

I rediscovered a song that always speaks to me, and when I get stressed I think about me and what I am going to do. This song always grounds me and reminds me that this day is a gift from God, and that if I am truly successful, by doing God’s work, I will be remembered as someone that used my gifts for the Kingdom, not just as an average working class guy that had a radio show and a blog.
