Testimony

Whoa!  I just realized I had not shared what happened...

So, you saw that I had lost my job and a recruiter had contacted me...  without solicitation on my part.

I interviewed with the recruiter, took a test, etc.  Then they got me an interview with the company I am now working for.  Well, as far as I am concerned the interview did not go well.  In fact when I left the interview I immediately called the recruiter and told them it was a bust, but to please provide me with the feedback I need to improve.  They said "we'll call you back in a bit."  I got home, my phone rang and it was the recruiter who said "are you ready to start?"

I was pretty shocked.  I was certain they would not even consider me based on the interview.  But they did and they hired me.

So here are the events:

Wed. Lost Job.
Thu.   Email from recruiter
Fri.    Contact from recruiter
Mon. Supposed to meet recruiter, we missed each other
Tue.  Met recruiter
Thu.  Interview / Initial Job Offer

I had been praying for change for quite awhile now and God was listening.  Sometimes what you pray for isn't exactly what you expect as an answer, but His answer was effective and did what I asked for.  Then, after shaking me up and changing my life he provided a job for me to make sure (another, constant prayer of mine) I am able to house, feed, cloth my family.

I know most people would just consider this chance...  I don't.  Prayer answered, lose job, job provided without me lifting a finger and despite my own failures and misgivings.  God chose this job for a reason, I don't know what it is but here I am so perhaps I can be an instrument in this place.  I guess only time will tell, but I am grateful for His love and for how he works in my life, and for where I am right now.
