Encouragement for our Sister Aisha, Part 2



This e-mail was sent by Aisha 01/10/07. She had some great News:

Hey Everyone,

I am so happy to report that after about two months of job hunting I have received a job working for Board of Child Care as a Childcare Worker. Praise the Lord!!! This is one of the happiest days of my life. Many of you know what I have gone through during this time and some of you don't but long story short God has been keeping me these past several weeks and is the reason that this job was offered to me. I just have to praise God so much for this job because I took a risk of leaving my previous job and trusting that God was going to provide everything for me, from rent money to groceries, and money to pay my bills. God has been so good to me.

I would like to take this time to thank everyone for their prayers, encouragement, concerns, and support during this time. I tell you it wasn't easy, but God gave me the strength to make it.

I will now tell you the story of how I recieved the job...Today 1/10/07 I was lounging in my room, with the sun (Son) beaming in my face. I made a comment to the Lord, "your are surely beaming today (lol), then I began to say to the Lord that being unemployed was weighing on me and that I knew He was going to work it out, but I was beginning to feel impatient. Then the Lord replied to my cry and He said, " Aisha, please be patient I am working everything out. Trust me, everything is going to work out." I then laid there and let that filter my mind and as I did the phone rang but I didn't answer it because usually it is telemarketers calling (lol), then the phone rang again, it was a different call, but again I didn't answer it because again I thought it was telemarketers, so I continue to lay in my bed. Then the Lord spoke to me and said, "Go check the answer machine", so I did and surely it was a message from Board of Child Care telling me to call them back, so I did and there on the phone I was offered the position as a Childcare Worker. I tell you when I got off that phone I did a crazy shout. THANK YOU JESUS!!!

I tell you this because God is so good and that He hears our cry and no matter what we are going through the Lord is always there. I love all of you and thank God for each of you and your prayers for me. You can go online and check out my new job at www.boardofchildcare.org.

P.S. Remember to answer your phone, you never know it could be a job and not a telemarketer!!! LOL!!!

Your sister in Christ,

Aisha Parks
