Journal Entry - "Where Is that Battery Charger?"

I received an awesome camera for Christmas and I can tell you I've taken lots of pics since that day. Several weeks ago, the battery was running low so I decided to get the charger to recharge the battery. Welp, guess what? The charger was NOT there. Now, my "Type-AAAAAAA" personality rebelled 'big time' because I try and 'always' put things back so I can find them. I looked everywhere and not only once but five or six times - but each time I came up with nothing! It was driving me crazy and this went on for several weeks, even to the point of putting my camera away because the battery was dead. I had absolutely NO clue where it could be.

I started pricing new battery chargers on the Internet and through local shops and they were 'spendy' - over $60! That amazed me because the chargers were no bigger than a small match box or cell phone. My brain rebelled! I could NOT spend that much money on another charger. Over time, I resigned myself to the notion that I would eventually have to purchase another one.

Finally, I did what I've done so many times before, I presented my problem to Heavenly Father in prayer and told Him of my dilemma. Nothing happened right away but I stayed optimisic that if 'anyone' could find this battery charger, He would!

Several days later, I was walking down the long hall in my simple home and without much thought, I looked at a black purse laying on the floor that I seldom use but walked passed hundreds of times. Immediately a thought came into my head, "The battery charger is in THAT purse!" I picked the purse up, opened the front zipper pouch and sure enough, there it was! I had zero recollection of how it got there but with time figured I threw it in when I went to Heather's house the night she delivered Cooper. Since she called in the middle of the night, my brain did not register what I had done.

Prayer is POWERFUL and good. I know!
