Blue, blue, my aura is blue

Last night it hit me....All of my "life" work....all I have studied....all I have committed to becoming a Christian educator in parish ministry is over.

You see I picked a field whose "heyday" is now "Hey! It ain't yer day anymore!"  It is "has" day and it "has" me a little blue.

Don't get me wrong; I love studying the Bible. I love teaching the Bible. Even my book shelf screams "STUDY!!!"

 

hope my Valley of the Dolls is hidden from view!!!  hahaha

I love all things church.  It can still be my vocation, but bills are piling and debt is still due and well, I will not be able to commit as much time to those things as before.

Please pray for me.  I have submitted resumes.  A couple of months ago, I received a "Dear John" letter (via the internet. WHAT??? Have we gotten to the point where you can call on the phone for an interview but the "we are going in a different direction" comes in an email???  Shame on you.)

I AM looking forward to this new chapter in my life, but right now I grieve for the former.
