Two days ago I found out our receptionist's husband works for the company that let me go just before my X left me. At that time, I trusted God even though it seemed like rotten timing and an unjustified dismissal. I have seen how it all worked out for God's good but I also now have even more insight as to how God was looking out for me.
Her husband works in the same department I worked (he joined them 5 months after I was exited) and has a position similar to the one I held. Since I left, major changes for the worse have taken place and I would have been absolutely miserable there. The poor guy is under major major stress! It is a private university and he is enrolled in a graduate program so he is not willing to leave at this point because his tuition is paid for- he is between a rock and a hard place and I feel his pain.
ALSO, a few months before I was "shown the exit door," I had requested permission to attend school which they denied (a company benefit that has to be approved). Had they approved it, I would have invested lots of time and energy into that degree and then may have been like this guy, wanting to leave but wanting to stick it out until the degree was completed.
Oh what a miserable wreck I would have been, all while trying to be a good father to my kids yet never having the time to see them because of job and school demands.
Ya see why I affirm that I am So Blessed? Even in losing my position, nothing happens to God's children without his permission and it is designed to work out where He gets the praise, honor and glory.
Love my life,
George
