For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope. Then when you call upon me and come and pray to me, I will hear you. When you search for me, you will find me; if you seek me with all your heart, I will let you find me, says the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, says the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile. Jeremiah 29:11-14
I was traversing the
golf course backwards from number 9 hole to number 1 monitoring a
tournament. I stopped at the rest area
between number 6 hole and number 5 hole (about 1/8 mile). As I started to leave I discovered my wallet
was missing. I said out loud, “Mercy,
Lord help.” I turned around and started
back to number 6 hole, driving slowly looking for my wallet.
A group of tournament
players were getting ready to tee off on number 6 tee-box. I stopped the cart to keep from distracting
them. While waiting for them to tee off,
I happened to look down at the cart path, and lo and behold, my wallet was
laying next to the path. I didn’t even
have to get out of the cart to pick it up.
This is a real example
of a prayer answered. Thank you, Lord.
