Not For Nothing

I have spent the past four months working with adult offenders.  At first, I found my heart to be lonely and somewhat sad, but now that dust has settled following my shift from working with juvenile to adult offenders, I sense a greater purpose for my life, as should you during such a time as a layoff.  This is a time that is not for nothing.  Just when I was at my weakest point in my life last week, I've since discovered so many answers to questions that were raised years ago just by calling upon faith and sleeping for ten hours.  Up to this point, it has felt as if my life was being lived for nothing.  But that simply isn't true.  Turns out, my life is ridden with purpose with not only much to give, but for the first time in I can't remember how long, I have much to receive. This life is not for nothing.  It is for something big.
