From our President/CEO/Founder: Brad Lindemann
Since founding Ambassador Solutions in 1989, I’ve met with legions of unemployed IT professionals. If you find yourself among them, it really doesn’t matter what the rate of unemployment is. For you it’s 100% and that’s a tough situation to be in. May I offer you some words of encouragement?
Do not lose hope. THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE. I know. You’ve heard it all. I’m sure you haven’t been wanting for career advice from well-meaning family members, friends and former associates. No matter what they say, what you hear them saying is, “get a job!” It hurts at the core of your being.
As you click-through another unemployed day on your Outlook calendar, with it goes another shred of your ever shrinking self-esteem. If you’ve been the primary breadwinner in your family, the mounting financial pressure seems unbearable at times.
So, how can anyone bear the burden of unemployment? The truth is no one can…alone. The truth is people were not designed to bear such burdens alone. The truth is, God alone can and will bear your burdens (job-wise or otherwise), so that you don’t have to bear them alone. YOU ARE NEVER ALONE.
The God of the universe is with you. Your reading this message is no accident. Read on, to hear what God Himself has to say…to you:
"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
(1 Peter 5:7)
This short passage is so very relevant to your current situation. Please don’t discount it. Right now, God is saying, "I care about you more than you can possibly imagine". Right now, to you, God is saying, "I know what you’re going through. It hurts me to watch you suffer. Please let me help you". Right now, God really is saying to YOU, "Give me the burdens that you can no longer bear. I want you to literally throw them at me, so you can stop worrying about them".
I don’t know you, but I do know that GOD LOVES YOU...with or without a job. I do know that if your circumstances seem impossible, then it’s time to turn them over to the God who makes all things possible. I do know that if you’re feeling like a failure, then it’s time to turn to the One who will never fail you nor forsake you. I do know that if you’re lacking bread for the table, then it’s time to turn to Him who is the bread of life.
Only you know if it’s time to turn to God. Is it? If it is, then the Ambassador prayer team would be honored to take your requests before Him. Just let us know how we can best pray for you.
Could Ambassador be the answer to your job prayers? It’s possible, but we don’t want to build false hopes. If you’re a seasoned IT professional, please make sure we have your up-to-date information in our data base. If we can help you, we will.
My friend, there is always hope…you are never alone…God loves you. May you and yours know God’s presence, peace and providence --both now and forevermore!
God’s best,
Brad Lindemann
