Friday night, I'm talking to my friend Jazmin Bailey. We both work grueling morning hours, a 3:00 am call time at our jobs in news, but we were set on attending an event to empower us both after shift. We made the trek about 40 minutes away to Disney for a Black Enterprise: Women of Power conference, and had a blast.
During our ride Jazmin shared with me God's dealing with her on obedience and trust, and his wanting to bless her. She kept bringing up the amount $100 and how he showed it to her several different ways. Literally, mid sentence, a friend randomly cash apps me $100. I tell her, and we got a good faith laugh out of that. Meanwhile, deep down I'd been having my own struggles with trusting God and whether he would really provide financially, as well as other ways. I said a prayer for my friend, who I was more than gracious sent the money, and moved on.
Fast forward to later in the night, and after being up about 23 hours...on the way home, I fell asleep while driving, one block from my subdivision. It was sudden, and quite frankly, terrifying.
