Just sensed from your post how desperate you feel you need this job and my reply is God will not fail to answer you.
He has heard your hearts cry and will not forsake you. He knows your need and will supply.
Meanwhile my love try to receive His peace in your heart too. Don't get stressed out looking and applying for jobs. Continue to search and apply for them by all means but do it with peace in your heart, knowing and trusting that God will open the door to you, for the right job at the right time.
Don't fret or feel down by this circumstance - Jesus is able to turn this around and give you what you need.
Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him - all is well, He will give you a job.
and I pray for your friend Matt also, that he has peace and that God gives him a job.
For both of you to have every need met and a job that is perect for both of you, in terms of hours, location, pay etc.
Much peace, I'm praying
Gentle-Heart
