Stories by the boss
I was talking to my boss today and i just love hearing his stories. He is a man who has experienced a lot of things and he enjoys telling people about his experiences. The way he tells his stories is so interesting and he tells them in a way that always cracks me up.
I knew he believed in God but I didn't realize until today that he also believes in the holy spirit. We got off on some subject that brought him to tell me a story about a time when he was at war and he witnessed a guy being shot to death. He never really understood the truth of the spirit until that experience. He said you could just feel and see that man's spirit being released from the man's dead body. I can't remember everything he said or how he said it but his story gave me the chills.
He also told me about a time when he was protected by the grace of God. A long time ago he was scheduled to close at work one day but he asked his boss if he could close for him since he wanted to attend his friend's wedding. Well the night that his boss closed the store for him, some guy followed his boss home and stabbed him in the stomach a couple of times just so he could get the keys to the store so he could rob it. The guy wasn't after his boss, he was after the person who was closing that particular night. It could have been him going through all of that instead of his boss. His boss did end up surviving the traumatizing event.
My boss also talked to me about how i have so much to offer and how i have a lot more going for me than people around me in this area. I think it was his way of showing me that he believes in me and that I should be more confident and proactive. I think he is not distracted by the person I am today but is confident in the person he believes i can become. It is awesome feeling to know that your boss believes in you and he's got your back. He is just another person God has put across my path and blessed me with.
