I couldn’t find Joy’s bathing suit. I looked everywhere. For hours. No luck. I finally thought one of the hotel maids accidentally took it.
Then I thought: Christy-- you need to kneel down and say an official prayer. For surely, God knows where it is.
So I did. Literally, twenty seconds later, I put my wallet on top of my suitcase and then, not thinking, lifted up my suitcase lid to get something. The wallet went sliding down the case and landed behind the table. I was so perturbed. Naturally, some more of my bad luck, I thought.
I looked over to reach down and retrieve the wallet. What do you know! There was her bathing suit!
God works in mysterious ways.
Sometimes, what we think is some frustrating trial or event--is actually a blessing in disguise. We just have to trust in Him and wait.
He is more involved in the small things than we realize.
