Favor
There was a young lady who had lost her job. She
applied for jobs at many places, but was turned down
many times. The interviews she went to, she thought
she was the front runner, but was turned down again.
This happened four times. She applied for a job in
another city and was asked to come for an interview.
She got a taxi at the airport and the driver asked
her how her day was going? She got to talking to him
and explained about the interview. She said how much
she was looking forward to getting the job and many
other things. That afternoon the same taxi driver
picked up the lady who gave the interview to the
lady the taxi driver had dropped off that morning.
The taxi driver asked her how her day was going? She
explained that she had to catch a plane for a
meeting in another city. She also said the she had
interviewed a man and a woman for a job and did know
which one to pick. The taxi driver said that he knew
which one to pick. The lady asked how he knew? He
explained how he took the lady to the interview that
morning. He said that she would not find a better
person. Shes smart, shes talented, shes
articulate and she wants to work for you. He went on
and on singing her praises. The lady said you know
what, I just made my decision. When she called the
lady, she said if you see that taxi driver again,
you need to thank him. Hes the reason I chose you.
When we have Gods favor He will make our paths straight and He will remove the obstacles that are in our way. We have the blessings that God gives to those who obey his commandants. Many times we want to follow our own paths and expect God to bless us. There are many things that God wants to give us. He gives us salvation, the desires of our heart, and He gives us His blessings, and to those who curses us He will also curse. He will fight our battles for us. The only thing we have to do is put our trust in Him and obey His commandants. Then we have His favor and He will make our way straight. Our God will give us greatly more than what we ask of Him. New King James Version Genesis 12:2 I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. 3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; .. New King James Version Deuteronomy 11:26 "Behold, I set before you today a blessing and a curse: 27 "the blessing, if you obey the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you today; 28 "and the curse, if you do not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you today, to go after other gods which you have not known. |
