Christ is in our midst!!

When the enthusiasm for your profession or job begins to wane, check for burnout. When reading professional journals, attending meetings, and networking with colleagues becomes a chore, check for burnout. I did recently and decided to retire after 59 years in my profession.

Bob,

Prayers and best wishes for a long and healthy retirement! I’m sure you will find new and challenging things to do in the future.

John

Retiring from a business or profession doesn't need to mean "retiring from life".

The change can open up fresh opportunities for service to Christ and His Church.

It is all God's time, after all. Use it to His glory!
