The Days of My First Job In North Carolina

(Inspired by my brother and friend, Ronnie J.)
Having learned to work when I was; in my  younger years, I had learned by Mom helping me how to cut grass.
But the first full time job I had was working at an eatery.
I had discovered what it meant to have a full time job.
I also learned that not everyone was a Christian at heart as I was and am today.
Thanking God for the privilege of being a Christian is what I did then and now too.
But working at the eatery I learned how to give change from the money tendered.
I was able to do some of the cooking and also prep work that was called for.
Meeting new people was my thing and I met them by working there.
Jesus knew what I was going to do and how I was going to do it.
Nothing takes God by surprise.
It is great to remember the menial things I had to do and what I am able to do today.
God is so great and wonderful for allowing me the opportunities I had.
This was when I was about sixteen years of age that I began working.
A great time of remembering is today and a lot  of thankfulness to God for allowing me the privilege.
