Let Me Tell You About A Man

This is a short story that will have a long ending its about a man born on this earth who was never wearing the right shoes

Oh, l don’t mean physical shoes, but these are spiritual ones, and it was painful for many years as they did not fit his feet, and the soul got very sore indeed

You see this man went into a job after job and he just did not fit as it was wrong oh yes people tried to chamfer off the sides to make him work, but he could feel, that it was right ALWAYS some part of him did not fit

His first job was chosen by his father to suit the fact he would be homeless unless he took the job, and so he did, and it was a ladies hairdresser. This man was still at the tender age of 16, and the man he worked for was not good; he would do anything for money. Watered down the shampoo and watered down the perming lotion, and, of course, paid the price.

Let’s return to the story next. This man, now 18, went to work in a shop selling jeans and t\shirts, and for a while, he enjoyed that, but with a young manager, he soon had to move on to work in a store selling clothing again with two managers this time it was a quality store. Still, the managers were lazy and drank too much – during their 3 hours (lunch hours) This man was too old to become a manager in any department so he was a sales assistant until nearly 21 then things would change, and he got a job in insurance as a collector door to door – by now you are asking did he fit so far NO.

He became an insurance man and collected penny policies and sold the business and was promoted (bright light, you might think), but NO, they just wanted someone to do all the work for others, and so it was time again. This time he was HEAD HUNTED and left and went to another insurance company and bought a book of clients that was paid for by selling and building the book. He worked there for some time and eventually sold it and was promoted to regional inspector and went to help sell for other people and did he fit you now ask NO.

Again he was HEAD HUNTED and went into another insurance company as a Direct Sales Force member to build his team and met a man who would say GOT ANY BUSINESS. Then GOOD MORNING as all this company wanted was BUSINESS & MORE BUSINESS. He knew it was wrong after he had signed a contract and was promised money for Christmas. NOTHING arrived, so he did not leave; he began to use ALL that KNOWLEDGE he had gained. It had taken many years but was growing.

This time he set up a business of his own and had both the job self-employed and his own company and with his team did both until one day that manager turned up at his office and found out, and within a few days, everyone resigned from the job, and all worked for themselves and him. Time progressed, and now it grew to selling finance, loans, and mortgages and moving to a larger office, and now there were 16 with not one owner/director but three its was becoming uncontrollable, but he could not yet realize WHY

As it grew out of control and this man was working 18hrs a day for 4yrs suddenly had PANIC ATTACKS and could not work leaving the business to be run in his absence by people he had employed and was paid very handsomely indeed.

YET THERE IS A SAYING: While The Cats Away, The Mice Will Play

They did, and they stripped the cupboard bare, leaving this man eventually with nothing except DEBT. He lost homes that he helped people to rent cheaply, he lost his own home and had to rent finally and

WHY because this man CARED about everyone, and the people he recruited or worked with CARED ABOUT MONEY – It was now the PENNY DROPPED

He realized that they were NOT like him. He had moved from place to place for years, and to obtain KNOWLEDGE, they WANTED MORE MONEY. So he began to LEARN that people either LOVE AND CARE and SHARE their KNOWLEDGE or MAKE MONEY then and ONLY then are you WALKING the RIGHT PATH, and the SHOES FINALLY FIT as you KNOW God Will Always Provide.

Who is this Man you may ASK well, he was ME, and it took many, many years to KNOW that God Does Teach, BUT In Mysterious Ways, we are told, and LOVE is in the ❤️ when we SEEK KNOWLEDGE, not MONEY

AMEN ✨
