Hello. I’ve been absent for some time, life has been very hectic.

Due to a reorganization at my workplace, serious job cuts are expected. In the next few years (they say) they are looking to eliminate approximately 30 percent of the staff. However, several of the steps to implement the reorganization are already in place so we seriously doubt it will be that long. From what I can see, it may be implemented within a year or so. As a result, many of my coworkers have already jumped ship, and I am once again looking myself. I’d like to get out sooner rather than later, because my job is very stressful and I think a change would be a good thing at this point in my life anyway.

Thing is, it has been over a decade since I’ve done a job search and when I did it then, you actually interviewed with a human face to face, and not over a phone, and turned in an actual paper application and resume. This online stuff has me stymied, and scared.

Please pray for me, that God will help me find what he wants me to do, and sooner rather than later. I am not looking forward to the unemployment line.

God bless, and thank you.
 
Dear Father in Heaven,
You want us to keep busy for You let us know that idle hands are the devil’s workshop. Help Historian in his time of need and put him in a place where he can do what YOU want him to do. If this be Your will, I ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen
 
Lord Jesus Christ, Saviour Crucified and Risen, we adore Thee profoundly. We beseech Thy Providence to attend Historian31 as he searches for work. As Thou didst labor as a carpenter and, in so doing, sanctify human endeavor, so be near to this person and sanctify his efforts that they may tend toward his salvation. May the work he does in this life bear fruit in Eternal Life. We make our prayer with confidence, glorifying Thy Holy Name. Amen

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.

Holy Saint Joseph, Patron of Workers, pray for us.
 
Dear Juan Diego, when the Lady of Tepeyac Hill gave you her picture,
She also gave you a task to fill your days with happy labor.
It was your privilege and joy to spend the hours caring
for the chapel of the Tilma, telling its story to those who came there.
Here the time of your earthly pilgrimage passed quickly and happily because you worked for Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Dear Juan Diego, please help me find steady employment that my time
and talent may be devoted to the tasks suited to my nature and ability.

May my hours of toil then, give fair return and more to him who hires me.

May my work not be done for mere profit, or just to make a living.
Rather, may it be done to make of myself,
one more able to honor the Creator.

May it be done with reverence and appreciation of the materials,
all supplied by God, and only modified by man.

May my work be done to enjoy the benefits of skilled and honest craftmanship.

And especially let my work be done to make known and lead others
to love the same Lady you serve so well.

Through Christ Our Lord, Amen.

I pray for your intentions! :gopray:

Pater noster qui es in caelis:
sanctificetur Nomen Tuum;
adveniat Regnum Tuum;
fiat voluntas Tua,
sicut in caelo, et in terra.
Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie;
et dimitte nobis debita nostra,
sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris;
et ne nos inducas in tentationem;
sed libera nos a Malo. Amen
