Pets
If we cannot find our lost pet, we put up signs with the pet’s picture and name,e hoping some kind soul will find and return our dear pet to us. If no one does so, we may offer a reward for the safe return of our pet. Our pets are like family members to us, and we become very attached to them; when our pet is home again, we lavish it with hugs, his favorite treats, and some new toys. Having our dear pet sitting on our lap again or lying down next to us is lovely. We may cry or not be able to sleep at night until our pet is in our loving arms.
Lost Billfold
If we cannot find it, we look high and low for our billfold. We worry that someone may use our credit cards or other information that we may have in them. If we have our name on it, it may be returned to us. If credit cards or other cards are stolen, we call to cancel them as soon as possible. The money in the billfold may be needed for groceries or other necessities of life. We may have to borrow from someone until we get out next paycheck. When we find our billfold, we are relieved and feel like a weight has been lifted from our shoulders.
Lost Keys And Jewelry And More
I was frantically looking for the keys to my house one day. After looking for about one hour, I found them next to my cat’s litter box. I guess my cats wanted me to stay with them that day. Once, I saw my keys in my recliner as they had fallen into the side of my pocket. I lost a silver ring I never found again, but I still remember it. I lost a bracelet and looked for it all day, only to discover it had been attached to a string in my blue jeans pocket. I was happy about that. I lost a pager mowing the yard and found it attached to a branch in my evergreen tree, just like a Christmas tree ornament.
Lost People
God is pleased when one of his lost sheep returns home to the flock. God rejoices over one sinner coming home as that person will be in God’s community. If we truly repent our sins and do not keep repeating them, we have come home to God. We should praise God every day of our lives for the many blessings he has bestowed on us. We have the gift of eternal life in heaven, where pain and suffering are gone forever. God welcomes all sinners who have come back to him with open arms. Live your life as you know God wants to live it; love God and ask him to forgive your sins. If we live, we live for the Lord; if we die, we die for the Lord. Praise God for all he has given us in life and that death leads to eternal life with him in heaven.
