It’s a mere 32’ degrees outside but the tensions are boiling over in the U.S. Nine days into 2009 and already one can tell that this year is going to be a year full of complexity. Many are still facing the unemployment lines in hopes or work. Reportedly, 524,000 jobs were lost in 2008. That’s the highest since 1993. The last time so many people lost their jobs in a one year time frame was 1945. These days even the wealthy are feeling the heat from the economic tensions. The current unemployment rate is 7.2%. For the first time, many Americans, like myself are beginning to become anxious about the possibility of job loss. Thank God I work in the health care field but even we have noticed that our companies are cutting corners and holding back hours. I’ve told some of my coworkers that- “the way things are going everyone should be thinking of a plan B and C.”
So, the only thing that I know for certain is

Deut. 31:8. And the Lord, He is the One who goes before you. He will be with you, He will not leave you nor forsake you; do not be dismayed. 1/9/09 by Ki Delete
