Job Placement
It’s great when someone tells you they are perfect for the job, but the proof is always in the pudding, as they say. Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. This is our word for today which can be a good vetting process before accepting someone for a job. Many people have great lip service when it comes to advertising their worth or job experience. But in reality there is a serious deficit in their character and integrity. When we approach any job of any kind, we should be coming from a place of humility that comes from wisdom. If wisdom isn’t in the mix of our make-up, we can lose control of the humility that guides and guards us from unnecessary temptations leading to wrong doings. The wise and understanding among you should have these attributes in place. Dealing with people in general requires humility and a lot of self discipline, and self control. We need the wisdom and understanding of the parents that are raising two or three children, and treat them each individually according to the child’s personality and make-up. If those in authority don’t have this basic wisdom in place, strife is at the door. Sometimes it’s better to wait for the right person than filling the position with someone who gave a great performance during the job interview but has zero depth of character or humility for the job. Job placement comes from the Lord, so try having the patience to wait for God’s man or woman to arrive.
