I guess now I have to get the vax or lose your job. I work for a major transportation company. The union isn’t doing mych about it, it seems. They’ve stated that you can go “medical reasons” or “sincerely held religious beliefs” to not get the vax. Has to be done by November 8th. People are saying that you will have to get your Pastor to sign off on the religious beliefs thing. Wouldn’t that be an invasion of your privacy if they insisted on that? I’ve worked there 32 years and would lose a 6 figure job AND a pension for my wife and I both. I’m at a loss on what to do. And if I do get it I’m thinking the Johnson&Johnson would be the least vax to worry about.

Praying for you now friend.
Matthew 6:25-34 (and the Sermon on the Mount in chapter 5) has been helpful for me lately. My mind starts racing about all kinds of possible negative scenario's and it's the only way I stay grounded.
There's so much hope in that book, and when it hits me it's all actually true I remember God is working all things to the good for those who love Him.
I was just listening to this old sermon by Charles Spurgeon on prayer. Or on the secret of loving God. Tozer's The Pursuit of God is one I always go back to. You start to realize the best path to possibly be on is the rough and narrow one, the struggle is for those fighting against the world and the devil. The easy path in this life is the one leading to destruction. So getting the right mindset can change perspective dramatically. Even in my loneliness and isolation, I know I'm blessed, even in my poverty, I'm filthy rich in Christ Jesus...
Praying for you tonight, be blessed brother. God is with you, reach out to Him. This is a blessing we cannot comprehend to be living in a time like this, the prophets saw visions of what we are living through right now, we have one last chance in all of eternity to give glory to God in the face of adversity, and it's all working towards that eternal weight of glory.
