RE: Blog, 20 May 2019: "Special" Delivery? No ... Good Samaritan story?
It is always good to act correctly, what your wife and you did was the right thing to do. I do not know how it will be in your country, but in my country there are almost no good people left.
A few years ago, I bought a friend an organ for amazon with a gif card. My friend did not have internet and I did all the procedure, then the time passed and the order did not arrive and after a month my friend called me to verify that nothing had arrived yet, I thought I had already received it because the information of Amazon was that it will be arrived in a week, and the shipment to Venezuela was another week more ... When I reviewed the status, it said delivered !.
wao ... that was a whole process, we began to investigate, thank God the agency of delivery to venezuela gave us the information of the person to whom it was delivered ... but the big mistake was that they told us that we had to call the person to she return us the package ... When we got in touch with the person, this person did not want to act correctly and did not want to deliver anything ...
Those are the things that I do not understand about the human being, those that take advantage of others, because if they give me something that I did not buy, I do not receive it. Well, this woman did not want to return the organ, we advised and the first thing they advised us was to go to the management of the company and demand that they negotiate with the woman, because they were the ones who made the mistake of handing it to someone else ... The process lasted about 2 more months, but thank God it was possible for the woman to hand over the organ, threatening her with the police!
So what you did here today, there are few who do it. Congratulations for being one of those few people who do the right thing. The love of God lives in their hearts. and so it must be-
Blessings friend a big hug to your wife!
As always, nice to hear from you @blessed-girl. Your story about taking two months to resolve a similar problem in your country is very sobering. Thanking the Lord that it ultimately was resolved satisfactorily. I would imagine there are many times when that is not the outcome ...
Sadly here, there has been an increase in what are referred to as "porch pirates." With the ever increasing amount of buying being done online and resulting deliveries made of products to the doorsteps of people's homes, the is a growing opportunity for bad people to take advantage of it.
We are fortunate in that we live in a relatively small town. And while I am sure some of that activity still goes on even here, it is thankfully quite rare.
Yesterday was a "divine appointment" for me. I certainly didn't start my day expecting anything of the sort. And honestly I just wanted to get the problem "off my back" in the most efficient manner possible, so I could get on with my day, as I had planned. Our Lord had different plans, however, and I was blessed by responding appropriately ...
Have a good day! 😊
