So, I just got back from a field installation job last week. We ended up running into a problem on the first day, and by the third day we had still not fixed it. The entire team was at a loss, and we had tried *everything* we could think of. One guy on our team says “it would take an act of God for this to work now.” So I said, “well, I’ll pray then.” So, I pray. But I’m thinking, how is God going to make this work? If the thing just up and starts working, people will go bananas trying to figure out why, since we’ve already tried *everything*. But, I pray anyways, and if it works, then hey I’ll give the glory to God, and let everyone know he answers prayers.
So, here I am writing this… guess what, this was easy for God! I got up on the last day, after everyone had given up, and rousted some people up to try one more time. Based on some good work by our team, I had one more thing to try. Before I tried it, I checked the network cables which were all locked in place, but on a *whim* I ever so gently pushed them in a ~bit~ more, and BAM the whole thing starts working. The thing I was actually going to try wouldn’t have worked, but those little touches did the trick. And we didn’t have to tear apart the whole system to find the problem, either! It was obvious, AFTER it started working.
But, I figure God allowed us to overlook it, so that my co-worker could ask for an act of God, and I would pray for and receive one, so I could tell him that I did! And now I’m telling you, and giving the glory to God just like I said I would, Hallelujah!
