As a Jewish believer, how am I part of God’s plan? I know the full number of Gentiles has not come yet but I was only recently saved. I was just wondering what you thought about this as my heart grieves at times when I think of how my fellow Jewish people turn their backs to the Lord.

Is it possible that the more we grow in the Lord the more meaningless and less value our life has here on earth to us? I have been given all the material blessings I ever wanted and seriously been given all the desires of my heart. We are told by many leaders in the Church that God wants us to enjoy our life here also as well as in Heaven. I have gotten to the point where I am not impressed with the creation here on earth but just want to be with the Creator. People say I am wrong for feeling this way.

I am going on my third layoff inside of two years. I was just laid off after seven months last Tuesday. I was told “last one hired, first one fired” although there was someone that came in months after me. I don’t understand why God would give me a job and then take it away. I need a job for so many reasons. I feel so lost and humiliated.
