Finding The Keys
What goes through a person's mind when the keys are missing...really missing, not just misplaced? I don't know about anybody else but I go nuts, crazy nuts. First, it is the "retrace the steps" routine. Then I move on to going room to room and looking under every piece of furniture. After that I would move to the kitchen, where every single drawer would be opened and rummaged through. Why I would think that I put my keys with our teacups is still a mystery to me, but still I look.
Most of the time when the keys are lost they end up in some mundane, normal place. Like in the pocket of my wonderful, amazing, and loving, husbands dirty pants. Which were in the bottom of the wash pile. Once however, we really did loose a set of keys. We looked every ware, and could not find them. For months they were missing. We just assumed they were lost forever. Then, one day...a miracle, the missing keys were found. Celebration erupted, congratulations were doled out. What was lost, had been found, and we could not be happier about something that seems so small.
My simple question to myself and anyone else who might take a gander at this blog is...What are the keys in your life, that, if they went missing, you would really notice, and want to take the time to find them... Is it daily quiet time with God, Bible Reading, fellowship with friends, worship. All of these can be the "KEY" to having a life filled with joy. I urge you to hold on to them, and if they go missing, then, by all means, find them!
