Wisdom in an economic downturn

by Charley on December 2, 2008

This has been a tough week so far, but there is alot more of this week to go. You see, at my day job, the company is going through a process called “Resource Optimization” and about 2% of the company is going to be “involuntarily impacted”. It really made me angry. Not because of the downsizing, but because of the fact that they choose to go the route of making it sound so PC, and not calling it what it really is, a LAYOFF!

I have to admit now, that I am looking at things in a different manner after watching one video clip. I found a clip on youtube that changed my whole perspective and thought process about my job and the way I am looking at other things. Its really quite cool, and it has made me realize that whatever happens, its not so bad. I will perhaps elaborate on that some day.

Until then, I am putting all of my trust in the Lord’s promise to be still and know He’s here with me, no matter what happens..

Here’s a little ditty by Story Side B that always gives me strength..
