Some silver lining to the clouds that loom: Yesterday, A good friend at work approached our Assistant VP and told him she had had a prophetic dream regarding my situation. Being a Christian, she felt compelled to share the message she received: “Give dlc another chance."

The AVP, also a Christian, admitted that he has been struggling with his decision to fire me, considering all I've been through He said he thought that I was in the middle of a spiritual war, but didn't know how to reconcile that with his professional obligations. Wow. What do you think about that? Let me know.

Regardless of outcomes, I'm reminded that GOD IS, and he still has folks who are brave enough to speak up.

Also, my WxW called to thank me for the flowers I sent her on her b-day, and for letting our son select the gift he wanted to give his mommy (sapphire earrings). It was the first positive communication I received from her since the divorce.

Considering this was the first b-day in 21 years I haven’t seen my WxW and also the 13th anniversary of my arrival at this currently tumultuous job, it was an emotionally difficult day for me. I needed some silver in my clouds. God answered by reminding me that I’m not alone and good begets good. Needed that, really. I’m trying, folks, trying hard to not succumb to bitterness and depression. I want to grow from this and be a better man. Being here at MB has helped so much. Tell me what are your thoughts about these turns of events? Promise? Progress?

I view these as positive. With no direction, just positive events. Enjoy them as events with no underlying meaning.

Have you read the Prayer of Jabez? Pray for what you want!

"No underlying meanings." That's different for me, but it may be a direction worth taking for a while.
