I am so sorry to hear this looming over you right now.....there isn't anything more stressful than the UNKNOWN

. It's easier to just know the facts so that you can know what you HAVE to plan for & what changes you HAVE to make rather than the dealing with all the maybe's this & maybe's that. The mind gets exhausted playing through all the different possible scenarios

.

I always look at life in the old way of designing a computer program where we used flow charts & always tried to flow chart all the possibilities

.....by the time I would get through 2 or 3, I end up exhausted knowing that I have at least another 12 or more to try to figure out along with any possibilities that I might have missed

.....ugh, the stress gets unbearable.

Always felt that God gave me my logical mind so that I could figure out these things rather than just depend on God to guide me through.....always felt that God gave me the mind to figure out the guiding. Not sure I was very right in my thinking

, but felt a lot better about myself because I at least tried to work through it....but I would only end up exhausted & over anxious, overwhelmed & ready to give up on everything. On top of that definitely frustrated because there is always the knowledge that if people had done things differently & NOT MESSED UP THE SITUATION IN THE FIRST PLACE I wouldn't be in the situation I find myself in

. Ah, working in the aerospace industry, I found myself in this position way too often until I ended up really loosing my career.....but I didn't have a wonderful talented gift as you do....just some old outdated technical skills & college extension classes that didn't give me ON THE JOB experience with the new technology that other companies other than the one I was working for even wanted.

My normal conversation with God always was "Yes, I have faith that You provides for my needs, but what happens if this time You don't see my needs the same way I see them?"

Even with God providing for my needs, it can end up being painful if too much change is required."

Praying that your situation doesn't end up being as bad as it seems possible & that if you do end up loosing your position that a wonderful NEW opportunity will come along for you. Praying that your situation doesn't come to the extreme so that you have to figure out how to deal with any major things in your life & that your family & friends will stand with you & give you all the support & encouragement you need to get through this difficult time.
