Just wondering if any of your children have lost their jobs in recent months due to the economy.
Our son, who got a job working for one of the top three most desirable companies over a year ago, is currently facing a possilbe lay off. The company got in to trouble with their credit and things have been going down the tubes since. This morning, we awakened to the news of 800 people from his company being laid off, the majority from the commodities group. Guess what group he works for? You guessed it - commondities. Time will tell. I feel terribly sorry for his co-workers who have families, tuitions, and mortgages. While it will be sad if he loses his job, he certainly has less at stake. Tough times for so many. All I can do is have faith that God has a plan for him and we will watch it be revealed in time.
