Look Over There

     One day last week I arrived at the office and looked for my keys I keep in my purse. They weren't there.  We were busy throughout the day and evening so I didn't have a chance to look for them. The next day I looked in my music bag for the keys because that is the last place I remember having them.  They weren't there.

     Still not worried, but a little put out with myself, I started checking all my pockets. No keys. I checked all the drawers, chairs, floors. No keys.  I didn't know where else to look.  I told Jay, and he also checked where I had already done so.  No keys.  I decided that we would just have to go to the office again without the keys, and then come home and search more.

     I went into the bathroom to get ready, and offered a quiet little prayer. I said I had looked everywhere and the keys weren't there.  I asked for help.  In the time it took to take a breath, in my mind I saw my red Scripture bag.  I walked to the room where it was, saw my Bible in the bag, but nothing else.  I was just about to turn around when I was told to look under the Bible.  I lifted the Book out, and there were my keys!!!!!  I have no idea how they got there.  They were separated from the key ring that holds all my keys. I never put keys in my Scripture bag. 

     God answers prayers.  Sometimes quickly, sometimes later.  Sometimes "yes", sometimes "no", sometimes, "later".
