I Went Walking & Holy Spirit Corrected Me. One Of My Examples Was Off & He Reminded Me How It Went. So Sorry, This Was About 10 Years Ago When It Happened To Me.

I went walking and Holy Spirit reminded me of what happened in one of my interview experiences. After I write this I will go back and correct it in the blog. So it went like this. I got the company wrong to start with. It was for a company that supplies books to grade school book fairs. I could have done that job because I know how my children loved when the book fairs came around at school. It is just as well that I did not get hired for that company because I heard down the road sometime they began adding Harry Potter books to the book selection offered to children. I know me and I would not have continued to work with an organization that supplies children with books of that nature.
When I interviewed with this company I had just gone through a trying time in my life in regard to my credit and financial. It was accurate the 2 people I interviewed with were listed as I wrote. I was told there would be a background check that needed to be done if I got the job. I got a bit apprehensive with that thought and would my credit cause me to not get the job. Please know I brought my credit up and it is fine. So I began to share without being asked to explain I began to share what happened in my life because I wanted to know if that type of background check would impede me from getting the job. That is when the man got this smirk on his face as I humbled myself to share what I just went through. Now that I am looking back on this, maybe the man was not smirking like I thought but could it have been a nervous look on his face. Or an uncomfortable look  because he may have been a bit uncomfortable with me sharing my heart? I am going to take that stance from this moment forward ok.
I was also reminded that I have shared with you all how I bake and share with a few of my neighbors. Not all of these neighbors are white. I do not see color I see kind neighbors and we all look out for each other. Kindness is shared amongst us. I will miss these good neighbors when I move. As I was walking tonight I saw a young couple and their 2 children looking at something in the river by the bridge. As I approached them I inquired if they were looking at the turtles in the water? They said no they were looking at 3 larger fish in the water and they proceeded to show me where they were at. I shared with them about the turtles. They inquired how long the walking path was and I did not know that answer. I did not see color again. Their one little daughter in the stroller smiled the biggest smile when I was talking with her (at the correct social distancing length that is.)
Once again, I am so sorry I got the original story not right. Thank God for Holy Spirit that corrects me and brings to my remembrance when I goof up. This happened about 10 years ago.
I definitely remember the first example because of the unusual interview I had and the awkward questions asked of me.
I just updated the prior blog entry and I left it like this … Maybe just maybe I was not suppose to work for either of those organizations. If I did would I have sought and accepted a position that led me to the state I currently reside in?
