A Voicemail

"Hi ProM, this is Alicia. I hope I have the right number for you. I you were praying for a job for me, I just wanted to share the good news. I just signed on as a consultant over the summer. In lieu of benefits they agreed to pay me $50 an hour. I'll be working really hard but I'll make about $24,000 over the 3 1/2 months of summer. I was only expecting to find a job that paid about a third of that. Thanks for praying."

To fill you in: This student is about my own age and is pursuing nursing as a second degree (her first was environmental science). I taught her clinical group for the last rotation. She was at about a $20,000 deficit for tuition for next year and she was unsure of how she would get it. There was even talk about how she might have transfer to another school to finish, apparently God had other plans!
