At long last!...

"Did it ever occur to you that nothing just occurs to God?"? This was said to me this morning at my second and final interview...my new and wonderful job! I have the outstanding privilege of working in a christian environment with some amazing people in a job that God brought to me! Yes, He brought this job to me!
A little over a month ago, my neighbor, whom I had never met before, came to me and shared that God had revealed something to her about me. She said that I was to stop looking for a job, that I was to rest in the Lord right now and just wait upon Him to bring me the right job. That was hard to hear, however, I knew she was right. After 100 applications and only 1 interview, I knew she was right. God was closing the doors in order to guide this very stubborn girl in the right direction.
Two weeks after she shared, a friend of my mom's called to say that she was stepping down from her full-time job and wanted to know if I was interested. She began to tell me about the job and I couldn't talk much...I was stunned! I told her that I was definitely interested. I had my first interview the following week. I didn't hear anything til last Friday, and I had my second interview this morning! It was perfect! All, let me re-phrase that, EVERYTHING I prayed for was in this job!
I can now begin to pay off my debt, pay my parents for groceries, and save for a place of our own!!
Thank you, Lord! It is true, you are NOT surprised by this, you planned it!
