i LOST MY JOB AND 3 DAYS LATER SAVED A MANS LIFE.
Lost my job.... details unimportant.

3 days later I'm getting gas at a store at a time I would normally have been working 30 miles away.

BEGIN STORY:

Man pumping gas literally falls over. I hang up the fuel pump, I lean the man against the pump and he's semi responsive.

I ask him his name, age, what year it is, who is the president. (Trying to rule out a stroke) I ask him to hold both hands up and touch his index fingers. He says his left shoulder is killing him.

I drag him into the store, (him quasi standing with arms around me) ((Like a human backpack))

I grab a water and some bayer, full dose, 325mg.

I tell him to look at me and listen.

"Chew this pill and follow it with water, it's going to taste nasty but may save your life"

Meanwhile I'm barking at the store workers to call 911, they start arguing "Do we call 9/11 or the 9/11 info line".

I lose my shit and yell call fucking 9/11, tell them there is a man in their store who is likely having a heart attack.

3 minutes later, an ambulance arrives. I tell him the sitrep and he asks for my name and phone number.

I get a call around 9pm that night. He tells me "the guy had a 95% blockage in my left anterior descending artery?"

The cardiologist said "the civilian who treated him literally saved his life". He said "He's in there watching TV and should me in the morgue".

SO now I'm conflicted, I lose my job but save a life because I lost the job. I need positive things to happen in my life right now....

Please pray, meditate, think about me.

I'm very close to becoming homeless.

I love all of you.

Well done! Everything happens for a reason my friend.

I had a similar situation happen where I called out sick from work once. Went to the beach with my gf at the time during horrible rip tides.

Long story short I’m swimming with her and I hear someone calling for help an older guy and his young daughter are behind me stuck out there. I swam out and dragged them both in one after the other.

Then I look for the lifeguards wondering why they weren’t doing anything. Turns out 2 were in the water saving someone in the other direction and the third was watching them clueless to what happened. Several people died that day in the rip currents. If I was at work it may have been two more.

Life has a way of not always putting us where we want to be but where we should be.

 Quoting: First Born Son

You passed the test. After losing your job you could have become very angry and lash out at the world. Instead, you saw someone else in danger and stepped in to save his life. You are a hero. You are made of the stuff true believers in Jesus are made of. I will pray for you for God's blessing upon you. If you don't know Jesus yet, the kingdom has come very close to you now.

I lost my entire career and two weeks later I was visited by an angel who told me it was there to increase my faith for the journey ahead. I was not laid off. I was pulled out of the system by God to follow the path of faith as preparing me and those around me for the times now coming upon the world. I have been blessed much more than had I kept my career and would not trade it back.

Listen and hear the blessing upon you now.

You have chosen to allow God to use the world around you for god's purposes. It means there will be APPARENT bad things that happen to you, there will be short term hardships, but long term you will be enriched.... eventually. Be patient and wait. That's how it works with the whole miraculous infusions from God.

If you hadn't lost that job, maybe you wouldn't have saved his life.

You've already created "real karma" in your life by your actions.

You may not realize it, but the person who benefited most from you saving that man's life was you.

At a soul level.

Divine Providence, OP. You were an angel sent from heaven to save that man. Nothing is a coincidence. Great work.

Do not be afraid of losing your job, or becoming homeless. The good Lord has great plans for you in the future.

Continue to be humble, pray, and do the good Lord's work and He will always take care of you. I will add you to my prayer list to find a new job soon.

This is your moment, bro. Say, "Here I am, God. I'm listening. What is it you want me to do next? I'm open to anything."

Then be ready. Eyes open, ears listening.
