My husband and I were recently shopping in Home Depot. An official looking gentleman with an orange vest and a clipboad came up and greeted us. I assumed he was a store manager or someone hired to solicit customer feedback. However, he was from a local plumbing and heating company and his first question to us was "How old is your furnace"? Immediatley and with great pride I said "It's brand new!" No sales pitch from that guy, he simply said "okay" and moved on. Driving to work the following day I was replaying the scene. I thought about how the man may have had nothing to do with Home Depot but just the orange vest and the clipboard gave him some credibility. Then I pictured the impostors that insert themselves into my thought life. They might be my own insecurities or judgmental people or the very devil himself as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14). And maybe it's a day that I'm a little off and feeling sorry for myself or not thinking of...
