Car Locked
Here’s a funny locked car story… Just last week my toddler decided she would play in our family car. She’s climbing all around and pushing every button and turning every knob in sight. When she finally did come out and close the door, she of course managed to lock the key inside with the windows up. We had planned on visiting some friends that night, so thankfully about an hour before, I went to double check that the car wasn’t locked with our only key inside…but it was locked. I remembered we had a second key at one point, so I checked in with my wife for that first, but to no avail. So I knew what I had to do. In direct sun and 90+ degree heat I wrestled with the window, found and applied several different prying and inflating and reaching tools, and finally after 20-30 minutes of wrestling with it, got it opened. Here’s the funny part, remember the spare key I couldn’t find? Yeah, it was hanging up in my home office all along. Found it this morning. Made me reflect of the moral of the story. How many times do I struggle in my own strength, when God has the key to my problems right there, all along? Something to ponder.

Great lesson there! God's fingerprints are all over our lives, but He has to open our eyes sometimes before we can see them. At that point we realize He was there all along, with whatever we need. We don't recognize that we are being taught something until after the lesson is over, but we never forget it after we realize it! Thanks for sharing!
