It may seem rational to you, but to me, saying god works in mysterious ways whenever you can’t explain something seems like a huge cop-out.

I wish I could say I work in mysterious ways when the cop asked my why I was speeding.

Or perhaps science could say electricity works in mysterious ways.

Or I could tell my boss I haven’t gotten that job done yet because I work in mysterious ways.

But because of your "rational" description, you get to say “god works in mysterious ways.” Lucky you.
