Last Monday when I arrived home from Bible study group, I noticed I only had one earring. I looked in the collar of my coat (it was a very cold morning) which I had pulled up around my face, but I found nothing.
Monday afternoon I had choir practice and thus returned to the main building. I went a little early so I could retrace my morning steps. Looked in the coatroom, walked outside and looked around the spot where I had parked, looked at the lobby carpet. Again nothing. They were an older pair so I just accepted I would no longer be wearing them. I felt a little sad though because they had been a gift from my husband.
Yesterday afternoon as I placed my Bible in my zippered carrying case getting ready for today's gathering, I noticed a glint of metal. There was the earring. It probably got caught on the strap of my nametag as I took it off over my head; I also store the lanyard nametag in a pocket of that case.
I had taken the Bible out last Monday afternoon to work on the new study questions. It wasn't until I stopped looking, that God restored my missing item to me. He knows the details of our lives, not just the big things. I thanked Him for this loving gesture.
