I have a habit of keeping papers in my Bible. This is not always the most fool proof method of keeping papers safe because I have been known to lose a Bible now and then, once by driving away with it on top of the car after church. Since my Bible was handy however I put the letter in it's pages with the intention of taking it out later to scan into my PC, and then storing in a better place. This past Sunday before church I discovered the letter was not in my Bible, and did not know how long it had been gone! As I sat in church that morning I could think of nothing but how much the letter had meant to my Grandmother to keep all those years, and how I had lost it in a matter of weeks after her death! I was praying it would be found, and told my wife that I was going to leave the service a moment to check the Lost and Found at church. There it lay! unharmed, intact, and out front was the letter! Thank you Lord!
It is scanned now, and resides in my great-grandmother's ( my grandmother's mother's) Bible. safe from movement inside another family heirloom that means much to me. It means much to know that I meant that much to her.
