I talked with my brother yesterday. He's in a dark place. He's been battling depression for a very long time and yesterday's news put the cherry on the cake. He received a letter of termination from the company he's worked for the a little over 9 years. He's devastated. I tried to talk him up and offer reassurance as I have been in that position as well. For everything thing positive I said, he had a very negative retort.
I know all I can do is offer support by helping him write a resume and perhaps give him some meat out of our freezer, but other than that, there's not much I can do. Oh and pray. If you have time to squeeze in one more, I would appreciate it.
Thank you so much and prayers to all who need it!

Is he on any medications? They can really help at a time like this. I will keep him in my prayers.

Thank you all so much. I have been searching job boards just to see what is out there that he might be qualified for.

Lora, I am sorry to hear of your brother's hardships. I am lifting him up in prayer for encouragement, provision and for the Lord to bless with even better employment than what he had.
