Yet another RIDICULOUS story to God's Glory

Yesterday was probably the best day I've had in a year. I started off by attending an interview for a Full time Nanny position. (On the way I find a choral piece of music by Ben Roya Hall called "Adam Lay Ybounden"... very pretty piece thanking God for the fall.)This was amazing because it turns out that this is a Christian Family who holds the same beliefs that I do. Then the baby automatically took to me. All I had to do was smile at him and gently say, "Hi Jonah!" and in reply he smiles the most incredible smile I've seen in a while. I left the interview very confident that I was going to get the position and praying that my feeling was correct.

Next, I decided to do some busking on 1st and Pike. I hadn't been busking in a while but I was still expecting it to be the same as usual... play for an hour and get maybe 10 bucks if I'm lucky (it's the slow season). Oh boy, was I wrong. I was singing "how great is our God" when all the sudden someone chimes in harmonizing. Come to find out, this person was the head worship leader at "Christian Faith Center."

I play for a bit longer, someone pays me a couple bucks to record me performing, "Our God" by Chris Tomlin and I got to share with him a little bit of the Gospel.

Then someone, puts a present in my money can without me seeing...

Inside this present included $10
 this encouraging letter:
Also included was a prayer cloth scented with Frankincense

So, to say the least my mind was BLOWN to BITS!... TO BITS!

Later, my roommate and I jammed out to a Jesus Culture song, "See His Love" she played the piano and I played my guitar... (I'm telling you that we mesh together SO well that it must be God who orchestrated it!)

Then a couple hours after that(9pm... which was the exact time my last shift ended at Target a year ago yesterday), The family calls me back with an official job offer! YES!!!! I am no longer unemployed! My roommate and I  hugged, jumped around, and screamed with joy! I have been a bottle of excitement ever since.

And to finish the night off we went to an Episcopal church to hear the bible being chanted and a pipe organ being played... I forgot exactly what this event is called but it was amazing to sit in God's presence after such an amazing day. 

God is SO GOOD!
