how great is our God

the last two days have been a whirlwind... God is so good, and praise him for his faithfulness!

Update:

I am the new assistant manger of a cafe/coffee shop.
The cafe (Cafe Enterprise) is situated in the cutest-seriously my ideal- little town.
My new boss had a friend who works as a leasing agent; I met her and now have an apartment.

!!!!

crazy, huh!? As i rode home on the L yesterday, i just started crying because I just realized how much God loves me. I knew that he would provide, but that He would grant my every--even ridiculously small--desire, is just so crazy. the city that i'm working in, Evanston, has every shop that i frequent. Urban Outfitters, Gap, Panera Bread, Taco Bell, Barnes and Noble, Borders, Jamba Juice. Its also in a college town (which i wanted), and is seriously precious. The apartment is a huge studio in a vintage building, with the curved-window wall, a decorative fireplace, nice bathroom, great closet. It has hardwood floors, and when i walk out the front door I can see Lake Michigan. (picture Kathleen Kelley's apartment on You've Got Mail) Today I went to pick up the keys and sign the lease, and saw all these sailboats on the horizon... I just can't believe that i'm doing all of this... its so big!! :) it scares me, and thrills me, and makes me depend on him.

Thank y'all for praying for me... God answered all of those requests more than i could imagine. I'll post pictures of all the goodness soon. :)

oh, and there's an olive garden 3 miles from my apartment. :)
