Seeking the Lost....and FINALLY Finding It!

Yesterday afernoon my husband found his reading glasses that have been missing for over 2 months.  YES!!!  We have been confounded at every turn in our search for them.  He certainly had more peace and assurance that they would turn up than I did after that length of time.  

Turns out they were at the nursing home in our other town, a place I had all ready been to in the search.  My husband though knew exactly where in that building they were most likely to be and found them within minutes of his arrival.  Grateful, that is what I am, that they were found, protective case and all.


My husband's glasses and my ring going missing over the past few months, both in the same town, have provided a real prayer ministry for a lady in our church.  She has prayed exhaustively for the finding of our lost articles, has had other friends of hers praying as well and her/their faith has been encouraged through the finding of them.  Her excitement yesterday when the glasses showed up was encouraging to my husband.

An inconvenience for ourselves has turned into an opportunity for someone else to grow in faith and trust in God.  COOL!!!  As usual, something that is as ultimately insignificant as a couple of missing items has turned into a spiritual opportunity for more people than just the two of us.

Hooray for the discovery of the missing glasses! What a relief. And how nice someone else got the joy of answered prayer!
