If You Trust Him

Filed under: Secret "Angels"

I’ve learned a valuable lesson. Even if things are going tough still trust and believe in God! I have learned this personally.

I wear glasses and I really want contacts. I e-mail a couple of people yesterday and asked if they knew anyone that needs a babysitter to please tell me by a phone call or an e-mail. I then got an e-mail by my biggest costumer. It said, “Hey girl! Please call me right away or have your mom call me! You are about to be Blessed!! Our home number is ###-####.” Then once i got this e-mail I called her. She wanted to talk on the phone with my mother. They talked about thirty minutes long.

When my mom got off the phone she was filled with joy. She told me that if my family could raise money for the eye exam and a teaching session on how to put in and take out contacts they person that she was talking about will buy as much as she can afford of contacts for me! I just have to give her my prescription! This is a HUGE MIRACLE! Then later when my mom and I were out looking for a pair of jean shorts for me I saw I got a voice message. The message was from one of my pastor. He wanted to know if I could babysit from about 5:30pm-8:30pm.

I ended up babysitting them. They were so cool! Those kids were nice to each other and didn’t get in a fight and cry about it! Most of the kids I babysit fight a lot together. I ended up getting $25 dollars which is $7 an hour! I feel so blessed! I almost have enough money for my contacts. We are also going to use the check my nana and papa are sending me for clothes on the contacts because I have enough clothes even though they aren’t new. Yesterday was the biggest blessing I have had for myself ever since my mom got her second type of cancer!

( I don’t want to say any names or have any phone numbers in here for safety of these people.)

Totally amazing, Keona! Thanks so much for sharing with us! I still have quite a few mom friends back in Bakersfield. So, if you’d like, you can email the details about your babysitting service- price you charge, phone number to reach you at, availability, CPR certified, etc. to my email address & I’ll gladly share it with others. You just never know who might need a sitter!
