MY PURSE WAS RETURNED

Yes that is what I said. Saturday night I received a call from Michael's and they had my purse in their vault for several days. He said he didn't know why I wasn't contacted earlier but that it appeared nothing was missing. Alan was home - a rare occasion- so I jumped in the car and picked it up. Everything was still in the purse, keys, glasses, credit cards, Hannah's change purse with all her coins. It was amazing.

Why did I have to go through this experience? I don't know for sure but this is what I learned.

First, Heavenly Father does hear and answerer are prayers. Not always in the way we would like but He is listening to us.

Second, There are evil people in this world. The day my purse was lost. I came home in a panic and so upset at my self for losing it again. That night when I watched the news they had announced the killer of Adam Walsh and I thought " I am truly blessed it could have been worse it could have been one of my children".

Third, There are also good people in the world. Someone did in fact find my purse I left in the shopping cart and turned it in along with the bag of items I just purchased.

Hopefully I will never lose my purse again!!!

Wow, I'm so glad that you found your purse! I understand how things happen not in the way that you would have them happen. I'm glad that nothing was lost!
