Clay found out she was a winner Monday night but couldn't double check it until Tuesday because the shed she was staying in doesn't have electricity.
Her first thought after realizing she would receive the large sum of money was: "He's an on-time God."

“I don’t have much family left and kept telling my friends that I have the faith of a mustard seed," she told the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery. "I knew that God would bless me soon."

She purchased the ticket for the March 23 drawing. She won the Powerball drawing, but because she paid an additional dollar for the Power Play, her $50,000 prize was multiplied by three.
