We had been at Allen's Air Conditioning, Inc. for a few months. It was fantastic! David Allen and his wife, Rhonda, could not have been more gracious. One of the many benefits the company offered was a paid insurance program. I was not eligible for their insurance until I had been working there for a period of time. Rhonda had signed us up for a "Cobra" plan through Shop Rite grocery for that period. I didn't know a "Cobra" from a "Copper Head", but she did. Just as we were about to switch plans, we discovered that we were going to have a baby!
We didn't know that being pregnant was a "pre-existing condition"! I only knew that I couldn't afford to pay all of the hospital bills. What if something happened? What if we had to stay in the hospital longer? What if we had to have emergency care? What was I going to do? Rhonda Allen went to work! She filled out all the necessary paperwork to keep me on the plan through Shop Rite. I don't know how that all worked, but it did. Rhonda could have taken the attitude, "That's your problem", but she made it her problem too. They paid the price to keep us protected. Our family owes a lot to her.
Kayla Conley was born February 20th, 1991. The previous twelve months were full of incredible changes! New church, new job, new child, new LIFE! Change can be good. It was for us! God, even though He Himself never changes, made changes in the way He dealt with the human race. It was a GOOD change! He sent Christ to be our new "High Priest" and gave us a BETTER "Law". It was a New Plan! We learn about it in Hebrews 7:12 "For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law." Jesus could have taken the attitude, "That's your problem", but he made it his problem too! He paid the price to keep us protected! We owe a lot to him! He's the best insurance policy you can have!!!
