The Answer CanBe Right In Front of You - Receive It!
This Sunday after church, I had a thought about prayer that I think others may have experience. I have had a lot of growth in our brokerage business in the last few months, and I have felt somewhat overwhelmed. I was reluctant to get more help, because I just have done it by myself for so long in real estate. But I had to make a change.
So I prayed for help in managing my brokerage business. We are a small group of five, and up until the beginning of this year, we worked pretty much solo. Each agent and me handling our business. But around the start of the second quarter the flood gates opened up, and we needed help.
I had read the MREA book, and I learned from those greats who have walked the past before me that your first help is someone to manage the transactions. After I prayed for direction about this person, almost immediately I received a phone call from a former co-worker wanting to get started in real estate.
Her experience was perfect for providing assistance with managing transaction flow. Hear was my answer. And so fast. Hmmm....
It took me over a month to accept this person as the answer to my prayer. I knew it was right immediately, but I was reluctant to make the change to add her to the group. It's like UPS shows up with a package. You answer the door and see the package, but until you sign the receipt and take the package, you don't get the benefit of the package.
Today I am glad that I finally stepped forward to receive the package. And so thankful for answered prayer.
Trust in the Lord always!
