Friends In High Places
|
 "I
have no friends in high places!”
explained Olga to her friends.
“Then, how will you get the job?”
they wondered.
 As
a pharmacist, Olga had a responsible
job in the drugstore where she
worked. However, she wanted to
advance in her profession. When an
opportunity for a new position
opened, Olga applied, knowing that
her chances of being accepted were
slim.
In
Olga's part of the world, you have
to know the “right” people to get
the promotions and positions that
others yearn for. Olga did not know
any of the “right” people; she had
no friends in high places, except
One. Years before she had committed
her life to Jesus and had
experienced His help in difficult
times. He had provided for her in
the past; she determined to trust
Him to help her again
When
it came time to interview for the
new position, she prayed, asking
Jesus for help. During the
interview she explained that she had
taken computer courses. Upon
learning of her computer skills, the
director told Olga to quit her
present job immediately and begin to
work the very next day in the new
position! For Olga this was a
miracle—truly God's provision for
her! The eLearning Center
 in
Zaporozhye, set up by eDOT, had made
the impossible possible for her.
She would never have had the funds
to pay for the quality computer
courses that she needed to gain
skills for a new position, and she
would never have been promoted to a
new position without those skills.
Classes
at the Zaporozhye eLearning Center
in Ukraine have been offered
complimentary to the community for
about three years. Olga found she
didn't need friends in high places;
Jesus, her Best Friend, had provided
the skills she needed through the
eLearning Center.
