Bold Prayers (part 2)
Miracle 1
Two years before my move to Atlanta I started praying. My greatest desire at the time was to be a home owner. I had determined that it was MY TIME. I was tired of renting. All my friends and family had homes of their own and I too wanted to share in the American Dream of homeownership in Atlanta. There was only one problem. I was still living in New Jersey. My job was in New Jersey and my career was steadily moving me up that corporate ladder. If I resigned from my position it would probably put me five steps back from where I was currently at financially. I prayed for months and contemplated on what I should do.
Pray without ceasing. I Thess. 5:17
I work for an insurance company that encourages their employees to work from home. However, our department was not structured like the rest of the company. The option of working from home was up to the discretion of the department director and our director had a strict rule. NOBODY WORKS FROM HOME.
After months of prayer I had decided that I wouldn’t wait any longer and it was time for me to make that move. I went to my boss and advised her of my plans to move to Georgia and that I would probably be looking for a new position within the company. A position that would allow me to work from home and log in remotely. While sitting in her office the sun suddenly changed position and the rays from the sun shined directly into her office.
After I told her my plans to move on she suggested that I work from home. She expressed how much she appreciated all my hard work and that she didn’t want to lose me. I was flabbergasted and speechless. No one else in the department was being awarded this opportunity except for me. I knew that was God’s favor.
I will praise the LORD God with a song and a thankful heart.
Psalm 69:30
I said Thank You Lord for months. I felt like the chains had been broken and I was finally on my way. I couldn’t believe I was going to move down south and I wouldn’t have to look for a new job. I could keep my current salary and move to the south where the cost of living is cheaper.
