105 - When what was lost is found

'...that which was lost has now been found' (Luke 15:9)

I'm sure we've all been through it. 

You reach into your bag for your purse/wallet/phone/iPod. (It was even a passport for my brother once!)

But it's not there. 

You search deeper. Nothing. You check your pockets. No good. 

Your heart starts to pound, your mind desperately trying to remember when you last had the object you're trying to find. 

Please God no. No. NO. Please help me find it! 

And, just when you're about to give up all hope, He leads you to it. In a pocket you hadn't checked. On the side somewhere in the house. 

And the relief is wonderful. 

But do you remember to say...

Thank you God it wasn't lost for good.
