PURSE-sonally Speaking

Weird happening this week. I thought my purse got stolen. Yeah, canceling credit cards, getting a new license, trying to piece my calendar back together--it was a panicky, disheartening pain in the neck.

I asked all my friends to start praying. And boy are they good, because my purse suddenly turned up at home tucked away in a remote place in my laundry room. I was totally relieved and totally humiliated all at the same time. I had filed a police report, for Pete's sake! I was SO SURE someone had taken it!

Anytime I'm feeling "so sure" I hope I'll remember the crow-eating moment of having to call the police on myself to report myself a total idiot. And I'm also hoping that crow is at least relatively low in calories. What a helping I've had this week.

Of course, my purse was never lost to God. He probably wondered anyway why I was in such a lather over a bag of lint and old tissues and that huge handful of receipts I'll never need. But he never lost sight of it.

That's one thing I can be "so sure" of. As a matter of fact, I can be sure of everything the Father has written down for me in his Word. And really, that's about it. The good news is that that's enough. It's all I need. Well, and maybe every once in awhile, those used tissues and old receipts.
