When it's His Will

Hello everyone,. Praise the Lord!

WHEN IT'S HIS WILL

We met an American at secret church here in San Sebastian, Spain. She is a young lady from Colorado. Her name is Sheila. I had thought that she was Hispanic, but her mother was from Switzerland and her father was a black American.

Back in Colorado she was putting out job applications and praying for God's guidance about her future. She was an English teacher. The answer to all of her job applications was, "no." Every company and school turned her down. A closed door is an answer. 

But so is an open door.  Suddenly, out of nowhere, she received a phone call. It was someone from Spain! The person on the other end said that they wanted her to work for them! They said that they were looking for someone just like her to teach English there in Spain!

After praying about it, she felt that the Lord wanted her to go. Her mother, and others, said it was a good idea. She agreed to the job. They even paid for her to fly there. After getting there, and before her first paycheck, her money was getting low. She realized then that she was alone and scared. She couldn't even speak Spanish!

She went to the bank to withdraw some of her last of her money, and out of the blue, someone approached her in the lobby....

A young lady walked up to her in the bank lobby, and said that she was going to give her some money! Then an older lady walked up to them, she was the mother of the first one. She said that she also wanted to give her some money!

The mother and daughter were complete strangers and seemingly came out of nowhere! They gave her all the money she needed to get by until her first paycheck came in. Only God could have done that!

We agreed and rejoiced that the Lord will meet our needs when we step out in faith!  When it's His will, it's His bill. She has now been there for over two years, speaks good Spanish now, and is active with her church.
