My team and I were having breakfast with a bank president in Oklahoma City. This banker named Sean remarked on how friendly and attentive our waitress was to our needs.

Later, Sean informed our group how difficult his bank had found it had become recently to find friendly employees.

Later, Sean went to his car for a job application. “I’m going to get this waitress to come work for us,” Sean said excitedly.

Finding people to hire has been difficult this year, but finding good people is even harder. It requires seizing every opportunity.

Ephesians 5 teaches, “Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity.”

We live in a season when identifying good people requires seizing every opportunity.
