Blessings Abound

Saturday night Abbie and I walked down the main drag to Mega Super, our local grocery store. We purchased a few things and I paid for them. My wallet snaps onto my belt and then flips inside my pants in order to conceal it. I apparently failed to flip it back in...leaving it hanging on my waist. We left the store and then walked down a dark street to drop Abbie off at youth group at an area ministry called the AMCA house. I then walked home and then discovered that my wallet was missing!!! I was just sick over it! I immediately retraced my steps with a flashlight...several times, with no luck. I returned home and cancelled my credit cards and then contemplated how I would handle replacing my drivers license, when I no longer live in Maine, my scuba license, various membership club cards, ect... aghghgh! I was very mad at myself and in a bit of a panic until I remembered a visiting pastor here telling us to NEVER PANIC... God's will is perfect. I thought "how ridiculous of me to panic and worry!" I then prayed that God would deliver my wallet into the hands of a christian... honestly thinking that the chances of that were quite slim and that God must have had a different plan in all this.

Well, last night we had the Diems, the Wilson's and a few neighbors over for a litte party and who called but the Director of our school. She informed me that a wonderful Christian woman had called her, from her church, after having found a wallet which contained among many things, my student i.d. card with a number to the institute. I called their cell phone and they are returning it to me tomorrow night after a bible study. God is so good! I need to learn never to panic...God is in control and has always been so good to me.
