#Won't He Do It!

Wow! God is so Amazing!  He knows exactly what you need, so trust Him. Let me tell you about the God I serve!!! A couple months ago God told me to leave my job.  Did you read this good?! He said "daughter,  leave your job. You asked me to take you to your wealthy place so you need to leave your job and do this 5linx business." And I was like, okay Lord but I don't know Jesus. I got benefits, security, great repor with Supervisors. I'm good Jesus. But I was working in Beverly Hills and that is a 30 minute drive going and 1-2 hour drive home. And my car was taking a hitting from all that commuting.  And honestly I was ready to leave. I worked with children in an after school program  and my passion began lacking. I love working with children and love teaching. But leave my job?! I have to point out that I struggled working in Beverly Hills.  Having to deal with people's prejudices and being one of the few Black women was not always easy but I LEARNED so much. And God is So Intentional. So back to my story!! So after a couple weeks I finally put in my resignation after working there almost 2 years.  The only source of income I had was an Internship and that was only 12 hours a week. So it wasn't a source of income that could sustain me. So two weeks later I leave my job. My supervisors were sad to see me go and my last day was bittersweet, but I was OBEDIANT and I trust God! So now I'm going to my internship and now bills need to be paid. Oh and my car starts having mechanical problems. So I got a little bit of money and a list of bills, including rent. I believe and follow the Laws of the Harvest, so I give my TITHE & OFFERING Faithfully!! So whatever I get from my internship I sowed it back to God. Whatever I got from family, I sowed it back to God. I was torn because I wasn't able to give as much since I wasn't making that much anymore but I gave my 10 percent and Offering and gave toward my $500 Seed Pledge. My last day was Oct 18th so I have been unemployed since then. It has been a learning and humbling experience. My God you are good! I struggled with doubt, worry, concern and I combated it with tears running down my face saying I trust you God, I trust you. I was at a point where I had no control.  I had to submit myself fully, really trust God and have real Faith. I say real Faith because real faith is trusting that God will sustain you after leaving a job and having no other secure income coming in. Im doing my 5linx and getting No's left and right[Network marketing is a billion dollar industry by the way & the services are essential! We use them everyday & you pay lower prices for same products you use everyday]. So I'm like okay Lord...are you sure this is what you said? Maybe I heard you wrong. Then a friend of mine shares with me about her job hiring for black friday at Charlotte Russe.  #Humbling I haven't worked retail in 5 years Jesus. Oh no no no! Lol! But I was like okay i could use extra money. And who am I to think any job is beneath me. Check your Heart Jasmine! So I go to the interview,  get hired and work black friday. I actually had fun and enjoyed working with all the ladies. Plus it came natural because I worked retail for so long, love fashion and helping others. So it was a great day. So that was a one day job so now I'm back to not working my internship at all because my hours are cut and I really don't have nothing. Zero.Zelch.Nada. But I give the little I have and sow my seeds. A week or so later I get  a call from Charlotte Russe asking me to work! And it was supposed to be a one time job. Wow! Okay Lord. Ill take it! Then i get an email that says "Jobs!" From Immanuel Praise Fellowship the next day and it says Christian Preschool now hiring in Rancho Cucamonga. What! Okay Jesus!  Well I will apply and go from there. I call at 7:15am to inquire about position and gave my info to staff. Then I send my resume and receive a call from the director that afternoon to come in for interview the next day. I go in for an interview on Friday the 6th and after seeing the daycare preschool, meeting staff and children then getting my interview...I got the job! :-) Okay Lord!  This is an amazing fit. I get to teach kids about Jesus,  what?! I get to teach praise dancing to kids, what?! I see more beautiful Black children, what?! Awww Lord you done, done it now! *praise break** Aaayyyy!!!* So Sisters and Brothers I am a living witness and testament to when you are OBEDIANT,  step out on Bold FAITH,  TRUST GOD then He will give you way more than what you need, want and desire. Won't He Do It! Yes He Will! I praised Him when I had nothing and when he gave me something.  I spend time with God, I study His Word, His will is my will. We must take up our cross daily. Stay connected. He is good! What He Does For Me, He Will Do For You!! God does not discriminate.  Trust Him!! We are all in this together!

With Jesus,
Jasmine Nicole
