'Please help me': A balloon helps two lost people answer each others prayers

What happens when two people are experiencing a crisis and both need a little help?

Fate, or whatever you believe it is, steps in.

A Minster was going through this a few weeks ago when he started to question his own faith.  

Minister Jerome Jones of the Springfield Baptist Church in Monticello, Georgia was at his day job when a note seemed to appear from the heavens.

He explained, "I was getting ready to stop coming to church. I didn't see God doing anything for me.''

The note was attached to three balloons and it read, "God, help me go to college… please help me get everything I need to leave Wednesday – Mykehia Curry."

Mykehia was about to start her freshman year at Albany State University in Albany, Georgia and she was the first one in her family to go to college, hence why she sent up that prayer. 

Jerome only had $125 to his name – all of which he spent on Mykehia in the form of a mini-fridge and a blanket. 

As a Georgia minister felt he was losing his faith, an incoming college student was leaning on her faith, attaching three balloons to a prayer to God for help.

Jerome said, "I don't have any money in my savings account.''

"I drained it from the taxes on my mom's house. I said, 'Now, you see this right,'" he said as he looked upward. "I said it out loud because this is the way I talk to God. We've got a way with each other."

A simple note has lead to two people having renewed faith and shows that sometimes to get your prayers answered, you have to answer someone else's.
