Good Afternoon and Blessings
I believe in second chances and we all have at one-time or another been given another opportunity to get it right. My second chance came after botching a job interview. The executive director hired me anyway; he was convinced that I knew the job, based on my experience and education. Then a few years later, I had the opportunity to pay it forward. A young woman was to be interviewed for a position but was at the wrong office, in another community. Following the interview process for all the applicants and not finding a good match, the office where she was waiting called me and was wondering where the hiring committee was. I convinced the other members that we should give the woman a chance by interviewing her over the phone. She was hired without us meeting her and she proved to be an outstanding employee.
By not giving someone another chance, we could be missing out on a real gem.
Keep safe, Keep connected.
Blessings and the strength of Love be with you.

Jeremiah 18:3-4
So I went to the potter’s house, and sure enough, the potter was there, working away at his wheel. Whenever the pot the potter was working on turned out badly, as sometimes happens when you are working with clay, the potter would simply start over and use the same clay to make another pot.
Prayer Of The Day
Ultimate Architect
Like the potter’s gentle hands, from Love and the clay of the earth you created us in Your image and for this life gift we are grateful. You also gave us free will. At times our choices can be flawed but you are always there ready to redirect us once again. We ask that you continue to support us through the loving-kindness of others who help and pray.
May those in need feel the embrace of your Holy Spirit
and be refreshed and restored. Hear our prayer.
Amen.
