Obvious lessons hid in public

Such basic lessons have been public but ignored. Time reviewing well spent.

Late-Bloomer Managers

It is encouraging to those of us who have not been managers until late in life. I for one am not a manager yet. This book is an encouragement that God will use us to do great things if we only say yes. Moses is a man who stuggled deeply with the issues of the second chance. He finally said yes to Gods leadership and reluctently became a model for us to follow thousands of years later. Buy the book. Study the book. Learn the lessons.
