So do you think God works in mysterious ways??

Thursday afternoon I went to hand out my resume to a few stores/restaurants. I arrived home at around 3:30. Approximately 25 minutes later I received a call from Max Brennan - The Chocolate Bar, of whom told me that no positions were available. So they called me to set up an interview from Friday afternoon at 4pm. I was thrilled to say the least!!. So after classes on friday I zipped down to the interview and it went splendidly well. Then after helping with the big youth conference at church, I arrived home at 9:50. Then at 10pm, as you do..., I get a phone call and I am asked to come to work on saturday at 5pm....at OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE. I had not even interviewed at this place at all. So saturday afternoon at 5pm I go into work where I observed and assisted a waiter all night. Next week I am on the roster to work Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday nights. 
 So when you think God isn't answering your prayers, just keep the faith and keep believing that God will work it out for HIS GOOD PLEASURE... not to fit into our plans. Thank you guys for continually praying for us. It is evident that prayer works!!

That is so awesome Matt! God does seem to take pleasure in baffling us with His ways and timing ;) They are not usually our ways. Just watching your faith at work makes mine grow stronger. Thanks for sharing. We love and miss you.
