When The Lost Is Found

All of us have a wonderful feeling when the lost is found and back home again in the place where we keep it. If we do not put our tools back in their familiar spots, we tend to lose them for a while, and we are so elated when we finally do find them again. We get especially excited when we lose our billfold or purse, and once we find it, we are very relieved, and the rest of the day is stress-free. If we misplace our house keys, we get nervous, wondering where we lost them and whether we have an extra set somewhere. We may need to hire a locksmith to get into our house and install new locks on the doors. I generally find my keys in the pocket of a coat I was wearing or in a different pocket where I normally do not put them.

People Get Lost And Found Once Again

All of us get excited if one of our flock disappears. If we cannot find a family member or talk to them, it is very stressful for us. God is so very glad when one of his flock that had drifted comes back to him. People have so many temptations that tend to separate them from God. We must realize that God comes first in our lives, then us, and then others. We must help people who have drifted away from God find their way back home to God. Without God in your life, you are nothing at all. With God in your life, all things are possible as God saves and takes care of his flock. Never drift away from God for too long, as he is your root in life, and you are leaves on the tree that fly away with the wind without nourishment for your soul from God.

When Pets Return Home

When our pet dog or cat disappears, we spend hours trying to find them. We may find them soon, or it may take years. One woman moved to a different state, and her cat showed up on her doorstep six months later. Her cat was thin, but otherwise she was in good health. My Mother had a dog years ago that traveled over several mountain ranges, but she finally found her way back home with a few porcupine quills in her that the Vet safely removed. I had a cat that was gone for 8 years, and she returned home to die. Within one week of being home, she died.

Finding Things From The Past Is Wonderful

I had a toy years ago that I loved. One day, while mowing the lawn, I saw that wonderful toy from years ago still in one piece. It was a plastic six-finger that shot out little messages and flat darts. I also found a little owl whistle in a cupboard that had gotten stuck in there for years until it wished to be found by me. One day, I found one of my father’s marbles behind an old shed. It was a red-and-white swirl marble. I found several old toys at rummage sales that I had loved as a child, so I purchased them. Finding Lost Items and Items that have been lost to time is truly wonderful.
