Transition and Prayer




So many who I care for,

in person and in the blog world

are grieving the loss of a recently departed

or

suffering along side one who has cancer

or

other struggles.

*

I have candles lit right now for these.

*

A friend is unexpectedly in town

and I am sad that I can't spend more time with her;

this is my last week of work;

I have a huge report to finish by Thursday.

I skipped French class tonight

so that I can cook food for the week

and clean.

Tomorrow on my 'day off'

since I work three days a week for this contact

I will be editing the report I am writing

tomorrow;

there just is not time to finish it unless I do this.

Needless to say, I am already tired.

*

And I don't know when or where I will have work again.

*

I may get more work where I was but

everything is quite uncertain;

and I live in Ottawa i.e. the nation's capital and our

Parliament was just dissolved which means a new

election

which could mean a new government

which means government budgets are impacted

which means...

it may be harder to get work.

(gulp).

*

I am seek to continue to put myself in God's hands.

I am already thinking of the next

job-search-game-plan.

*

That said, I am a bit overwhelmed.

*

But God is with us no matter what.
