Are you unemployed? Are you struggling with the emotional toll of that unemployment?

If you’re unemployed right now (or know somebody who is), you know that joblessness brings more than just stress about finances. It also brings crippling worry about the future, despair at long and fruitless job searches, and frustration with prayers that aren’t being answered. Does God even care about you? Why would He leave you to wallow in spiritual, emotional, and financial uncertainty?

There aren’t easy answers to those questions—but our newest email devotional has some insight and inspiration for you. It’s called If God Loves Me, Why Did I Lose My Job?. It’s a seven-day email devotional written by Rick J. Pritikin, who knows firsthand about the hopelessness and despair that accompanies the loss of a job.

You can sign up for If God Loves Me, Why Did I Lose My Job? by visiting our Newsletters page, clicking the box next to the devotional title, and filling out the signup form on the right side of the page. It’s completely free and drawn from Pritikin’s book of devotionals that wrestle with the spirtiual dimension of unemployment.

If you’re feeling trapped by unemployment, this will give you a new reason to hope—and to trust in God to provide for you. And if you know somebody who could use a bit of encouragement, please point them to this devotional!
