Lost and Found


The most amazing thing happened to me just now.

I do not like wearing any jewelery at home, so I take off my ear-rings, two gold rings and my gold plated Titan Raga watch, (totally costing more than 10k), thread the rings in the watch, close the clasp and put them in my purse.
Today morning as I walked into our work premises, I took out my identity card along with the watch & rings and after walking a few paces realized that the watch and rings had fallen from my grasp and were not with me. I looked in my purse, to see if I had absentmindedly kept them back, and then went back and checked all the way that I had walked, but no, there was nothing.

I then walked to my department and work desk, which is about four minute walking distance from the main gate and emptied the contents of my purse. Again I drew a blank. I even started doubting if I had the watch and rings with me!! I then went and swiped my card and decided to go back and re-check.

However, I walked all the way back to the main gate without finding anything, and I noticed that there were about four cleaners were work, sweeping and cleaning up the very road! I then went and reported the loss to the Head of Security who was doubtful that the stuff could be found. He was of the opinion that there were a lot of employees / contractors / vehicle drivers etc moving about that area, and hence I better forget about finding the stuff.

As I left his cabin and re-traced my steps to my department, I said, "Lord, you have promised not to allow the devourer to rob and steal from your faithful children!" And immediately from a distance of about 25 feet, I saw the items in question lying plonk in the middle of the road, shining away for all to see... Wow!! What am amazing Father I have!

With a grateful heart I thank you God, thank you Jesus, for restoring to me what I lost.. Glory to our God. Praise His Holy name!
